Manchester United and West Ham find agreement for Aaron Wan-Bissaka transfer – Man United News And Transfer News

Manchester United have made significant progress in their attempts to part ways with Aaron Wan-Bissaka and it is a move that will also pave the way for a new arrival.

Wan-Bissaka pushed his way back into the starting XI at Old Trafford in Erik ten Hag’s second season, and did relatively well. His performance against Manchester City in the FA Cup final, in particular, earned rave reviews from fans and pundits alike.

However, question marks remain over his suitability to the Dutch coach’s style of play. Furthermore, the Englishman has entered the final year of his contract, meaning United only have this window to raise a significant fee from his sale.

Accordingly, the club’s hierarchy have been looking to replace their right-back with Noussair Mazraoui this summer.

If Foot Mercato are to be believed, the Red Devils are edging closer to achieving both their targets.

It is claimed that United have reached an agreement with West Ham United for the transfer of Wan-Bissaka, who has reportedly also attracted strong interest from Galatasaray and Inter.

The outlet claims that: “The Hammers have aligned themselves with Manchester United’s demands and an agreement has been reached.

“All that is missing now is an agreement with the player, but West Ham’s salary offer should convince him to leave United and conclude this deal.”

The former Crystal Palace man swapped South London for Manchester to join Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s project in 2019 in a deal reported to be worth around £50 million.

Wan-Bissaka’s exit will also reportedly open the Old Trafford doors for Mazraoui.

It is reported that United have verbally agreed a fee in the region of €25m (£21m) with Bayern Munich for the Moroccan full-back.

West Ham had also earlier reached an agreement with Bayern for Mazraoui, but the player was not very keen to join Julen Lopetegui’s side.

However, he has shown a desire to reunite with his former Ajax boss, and a ‘total agreement’ has been reached between the parties.
