2. Ander Herrera (Athletic Bilbao)
Ander Herrera was on the verge of joining Manchester United on the transfer deadline day this season, but unfortunately, a mix up between his own club and Manchester United resulted in the midfielder having to stay put at his current club Athletic Bilbao. The midfielder has a release clause of around €36mn, which Bilbao maintains, should be met to take away their prized asset.
Ander Herrera is known to get forward with the ball with utmost ease. He is fast, he is tricky and he is creative. Herrera’s passing ability is well known, making key passes at important junctures. He is not afraid to take a shot at goal when the opportunity arises, and has been quite accurate in that aspect of the game as well.
One thing that Herrera needs to work on is his decision making skills. Herrera has attempted a lot of shots from outside the box and has missed several good chances as well, but with the number of games he is playing, it looks certain to be rectified.
Potential Bidders: Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur
