FC BARCELONA | BILBAO ANDER HERRERA AN OPTION?

ANDER HERRERA is a 23 year old Spanish International & ATHLETIC CLUB BILBAO midfielder that is destined for big things. Character, leadership & solid work in the centre of the field makes the youngster a very attractive asset to have on any team. The Bilbao player is loyal to his Club, but his close circle also knows that if he is to grow into what his talent needs for full flowering that Bilbao is not the Club, that he will need to go to one of the "Big Ones".

Ander Herrera has come into the spotlight these days after a very public lunch occurred between Bilbao Coach Bielsa & FC BARCELONA Football Director Andoni Zubizarreta ( ex-Real Madrid General Manager Jorge Valdano was also present ). The immediate speculation was that Barcelona may have been sounding out Bielsa to Coach the Catalan Club. The illness to current Coach Vilanova is more serious than first thought & he is currently in New York ( USA ) undergoing treatment. Barcelona could be putting in place "Plan B" just in case with Bielsa.

However, during the mentioned lunch the FC Barcelona Football Director asked Bielsa about ANDER HERRERA, apart from another team-mate & Spanish promise IKER MUNIAIN. Spanish Football observers interpret this many ways but the most obvious is a possible interest from Barcelona for Herrera.  A Club of this dimension would be ideal for the player in order to grow into the Football player we all know he can be.

Stay tuned!
