Man Utd Transfers: 5 Players Moyes Could Spend £200 Million On
2. Ander Herrera
Another midfielder United should attempt to sign is Ander Herrera. The Red Devils were linked with the former Spain U-21 midfielder over the summer and a move looked to be on the cards until it dramatically collapsed under bizarre circumstances. But the champions could go back in for the talented youngster this month as David Moyes seeks to overhaul his flagging midfield and give it an injection of fresh quality. Herrera has two-and-a-half years left remaining on his current contract with Athletic Bilbao, and though Bilbao are in contention for a Champions League place this season, the 24-year-old could still be tempted by a move to England. It would likely cost United in excess of £30 million to land Herrera, as that is the value of his current release clause.
