Midfielder set to stay at Bilbao

Athletic Bilbao are confident that they will not lose the services of Ander Herrera during January. The midfielder was strongly linked with a move to Premier League champions Manchester United in the summer.

The 24 year old has a buyout clause of €36million which will rise to €40 million in the summer and the club are confident of keeping their prized asset for some time to come.


This is what a source close to club told Sky Sports,


“We know people are looking but the situation has not changed,”


“Ander has us that he does not want to leave the club in this moment.”


Bilbao currently lie in fourth spot in the La Liga table and should they finish there come the end of the season they will qualify for the Champions League.
