Saul has played 127 games in his professional career

If you’ve watched Spanish football in the past few years, you would have noticed the subtle but high-quality performances of Saúl Ñíguez. From an early age, Saúl has been the cornerstone of Atletico Madrid’s midfield pivot.

His performances are all the more impressive when you look at how versatile he is. Saúl can play in any one of the midfield roles, as he has the intelligence to match his exceptional technical and physical attributes.

Saúl may not be the quickest or strongest, but his ability to raise his game against the bigger sides at such a young age has garnered him many plaudits. He doesn’t get fazed by the bright lights, instead, he maintains a high level of creativity against all opposition. Such is the quality of Saul, he could start for any team in the PL, however, his traits would best be appreciated at maybe Arsenal or Manchester City.
