Athletic Bilbao: a year ago I would have said Athletic selling Javi Martinez would be impossible, but considering how out of place he looked in Marcelo Bielsa´s system which relies on width and not so much explosiveness from the middle, it is looking rather interesting to say the least. FC Barcelona are one suitor. They would essentially trade one of their young cantera players for the rights to Real Betis´s Basque midfielder Beñat and then try to entice Athletic for Javi.

In his year at Getafe he reached the final of the Copa del Rey, losing to Valencia, and was a UEFA Cup quarter-finalist. Granada:
