#3 Mikel San Jose
Athletic Bilbao may not be as glamorous of clubs as their opponents on Wednesday, but boast a raft of talented players within their ranks and one of the brightest ones currently is the dynamic midfielder Mikel San Jose.
The 26-year old former Liverpool man is one of the first and foremost names on manager Ernesto Velverde’s teamsheet and has been playing an integral role in his machinations. He started off the season with a 50-yard ripper against Barcelona in the Super Cup and has an assist to his name in the league in two appearances thus far.
A precocious talent with seamless abilities, the Spaniard is adept at knitting passes with an unerring accuracy and is vital in breaking up play. His aid and assistance to Aduriz and Sola will be key in racking up goals, whereas on the defensive front he will be willing to shut the supply lines for Luka Modric and Isco.
