Athletic Club v Espanyol - La Liga — Inaki Williams loves beating defenders

Given his talent, you shouldn't be surprised if Inaki Williams shores up at a top, top club and goes on to become one of the best players in the world within half a decade. The Athletic Bilbao winger has all the attributes that the role of a right winger demands.

Williams' change of pace and turns are the stuff of nightmares for defenders. He is incredibly fast and is also a decent crosser of the ball. He scored 7 and assisted a further 6 goals in the La Liga this term.

The youngster will be a great addition to Manchester United as his pace is something they would love to add to their arsenal. United have a reputation for hitting teams hard on the counter and Williams will further strengthen them in that respect.

At 23 years of age, his best years are ahead of him and it looks like it is time for the Spaniard to make the switch to a big club. And if what we've seen so far is anything to go by, he will have no trouble catering to expectations at a club like Manchester United.
