Man Utd Transfers: 5 Midfield Alternatives For Paul Pogba

2. Ander Herrera

United were linked with a move for Ander Herrera last summer but the move for the Athletic Bilbao man fell through under strange circumstances. With a late move looking on the cards, the proposed transfer disintegrated when it emerged lawyers claiming to represent the English champions were bogus. Since then, Herrera has shone with Bilbao, helping the Basque club climb to fourth in La Liga, while United have gone downhill. Which is just one of the reasons why the champions are looking to revive their interest and trigger the 24-year-old's ‚36 million buy-out clause. Reports coming out of Spain in the last couple of days indicate United are again prepared to match the midfielder's release clause as Moyes looks to strengthen his engine room. Quite whether the move materialises this time remains to be seen, with the player suggesting in the past that he could be happy to stay at Bilbao.
