Aaron Wan-Bissaka has reportedly given the green light to join West Ham United in the summer transfer window, with a deal worth £15-20 million possible.
According to a report by Football Insider, Aaron Wan-Bissaka is the subject of interest from Manchester United. The Manchester United full-back has boosted the prospects of the East London club after giving the green light to move to the London Stadium in the summer transfer window. So, a deal worth around £15-20 million might be on the cards for the 26-year-old.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka and his Manchester United journey
Aaron Wan-Bissaka has blown hot and cold since joining Manchester United from Crystal Palace in a deal worth around £50 million in July 2019. While the Englishman has shown flashes of brilliance, he has been found wanting in the final third.
That has compelled Erik ten Hag to prefer Diogo Dalot over him as the first-choice right-back for Manchester United. Nevertheless, the 26-year-old has turned out nearly 200 times thus far for the Premier League heavyweights while chipping in with two goals and 13 assists.
However, Wan-Bissaka faces an uncertain future at Manchester United after entering the final 12 months of his contract. Such a situation has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several well-known clubs across Europe. However, the English defender’s next destination might be West Ham United, with the East London club pushing hard to land him in the summer transfer window.
London return on the cards?
West Ham United’s interest in Aaron Wan-Bissaka is understandable. The Hammers are scouring the market for a right-back heading into the final month of the summer transfer window after losing Ben Johnson as a free agent. In addition, Vladimir Coufal is on the wrong side of 30.
So, it behoves West Ham to invest in a right-back, with Wan-Bissaka emerging as a viable target. The latest update has given a shot in the arm to the East London club, with the 26-year-old ready to join them in the summer transfer window. The Hammers are now in advanced talks to seal a deal worth £15-20 million for the Manchester United full-back.
Recent reports claimed Wan-Bissaka wanted to move to Serie A in the summer transfer window. However, after giving the green light to join West Ham United, the London Stadium is seemingly the next destination for the Manchester United full-back.
