12. Thiago Alcântara (Signed For Bayern Munich)
Before bidding for Cesc Fàbregas,
Manchester United were strongly linked with a move for fellow Barcelona midfielder Thiago Alcântara. The Spanish international has showed a lot of promise despite being able to hold down a regular starting spot in the Barcelona team. He boosted his reputation earlier this summer with a hat-trick in the under-21 European Championships final. Manchester United missed out on the exciting midfielder as he joined his previous head coach Pep Guardiola at Bayern Munich. His debut was matched with
a slap from his coach but Bayern Munich are a sensible choice if youre looking to win trophies theyre currently holders of the treble.
