The 21-year-old Atletico Madrid midfielder with his young age, skills and technique has raised the eyebrows of none other than David Moyes, who was present at the Estadio Vincente Calledron to observe the midfielder play. With the player having ruled out a move to the defending Premier League Champions, it is understood that Moyes will launch a bid in January to spruce up his midfield.
Darren Fletcher made his return from injury against Aston Villa, and with recent acquisition Marouane Fellaini hardly making the desired impact, and with Carrick and Cleverley not quite making any attempt to dictate the flow of the game, a upcoming world class talent like Koke might be just what Moyes needs to carry on the legacy of Paul Scholes.
