#4 Jonathan Viera

Alongside Mesa at Las Palmas, Jonathan Viera has also caught many people’s eye. Whereas Mesa organises the team’s attacks, Viera adds the flair in the final third to devastating effect. Viera had struggled to find consistency during the early part of his career but a return to his hometown club has helped him mature into a stylish player under Quique Setien. In the left interior role he’s become the team’s main protagonist for goals and assists, notching six and seven respectively in La Liga this term.
There’s so much to Viera’s game that’s developed largely thanks to Setien’s influence. He’s the schemer that takes on the creative responsibility; he’s blessed with quick feet and can dribble past multiple defenders with ease, play key through passes and is a goal threat. If there’s something La Roja are missing, it’s possibly a midfielder who can get on the scoresheet on a regular basis.
Viera’s the sort of player that can make something happen from nothing as he’s shown a number of times for Los Amarillos. He definitely wouldn’t look out of place in a Spain jersey.
