In 2019, Aaron Wan-Bissaka made the move to Manchester United, joining the prestigious club from Crystal Palace for a hefty fee of over £45 million. However, it seems that his time with the Red Devils may be coming to an end as West Ham is showing a keen interest in the defender.
Reports have surfaced that Manchester United has set a price for Wan-Bissaka, and West Ham is ready to meet it. With just one year left on his contract, United would prefer to sell him this summer rather than lose him for free in the future. Under the guidance of new manager Julen Lopetegui, West Ham is looking to strengthen their defense and Wan-Bissaka is high on their list of targets.
Despite being a solid player for Manchester United, Wan-Bissaka has found himself behind Diogo Dalot in the pecking order under the management of Erik ten Hag. This has only fueled West Ham's interest in the 23-year-old right-back.
The London club has already secured the signing of Max Kilman, who previously worked with Lopetegui at Wolves, for a fee of £40 million. They have also agreed on a deal for another center-back, Jean-Clair Todibo. Although Todibo was a top target for United, their interest in him was cut short due to Sir Jim Ratcliffe's ownership of both Premier League and Ligue 1 clubs. Now, it seems that Todibo will be joining West Ham on loan with a possible permanent deal for £27 million, although Juventus is also trying to hijack the transfer.
With the Todibo deal nearly finalized, West Ham is now focused on securing the services of Wan-Bissaka. Reports suggest that they are in advanced talks with United, but the Red Devils are asking for a fee of at least £15 million. However, it is uncertain whether Wan-Bissaka is willing to leave Old Trafford this summer. Turkish clubs Galatasaray and Fenerbahce are also interested in the defender.
Since joining Manchester United, Wan-Bissaka has made a total of 190 appearances and has won an FA Cup and League Cup. He has also reached another FA Cup and Europa League final. He recently started their first pre-season game against Rosenborg and may feature again in their upcoming match against Rangers.
