Seems it's Bilbao being awkward and making it seem like they have no choice in the matter. Every journalist expects the deal to still go through. He's in this country, has been shown around the training ground etc. Then all of a sudden Bilbao reject a bid...
Quote:
Athletic Bilbao have rejected an offer of around £28.85m from Manchester United for midfielder Ander Herrera.
Herrera was the lynchpin of Bilbao's midfield last season as they finished fourth in La Liga and was believed to have a £28m buy-out clause in his contract, which rises to £32m after July 1.

Bilbao being awkward. You can't turn down a £28.85 million bid when the release clause is £28 million.
