Saul Niguez
Saul Niguez, the 24-year-old Atletico Madrid and Spain midfielder, remains one of the most improved midfielders in the world. He can play box-to-box and has an eye for goal. He also is an able passer, who can split the opposition defenses with accurate through balls. Niguez is a regular in the Spanish national team now and has already scored 2 goals in 14 matches for them.

He is also the mainstay in the Atletico midfield and has scored 29 goals in 206 matches for them this season. However, what might go against him leaving Atletico are the facts that the Spanish players usually do not like to play in foreign leagues and the two biggest clubs in Spain, Real Madrid and Barcelona, do not have any vacancy in their midfield at present.
Still, clubs like Manchester United and Bayern Munich would definitely want a player like him in their line-up and could end up making a surprise move for him in the transfer window.
