Juan Mata

Juan Mata is one of Spain's best imports into the league and he has distinguished himself over the last eight years with his performances in England's top-flight.

He was signed by Chelsea from Valencia in the summer of 2011 and he immediately proved his worth, playing a key role in the club's Champions League win and was named the Player of the Year by his teammates in each of his first two seasons with the club.

Jose Mourinho's arrival at the club meant that Mata was living on borrowed time and less than six months into the Portuguese's tenure, he was sold off to rivals Manchester United.

Across his spells with Chelsea and Manchester United, the 31-year-old has made 250 Premier League appearances, scoring 50 goals and creating 51 assists and although he is yet to get his hands on the trophy, there can be no denying the impact he has had on the league.
