Exclusive: Man United in discussions over surprise swap deal
As per Football365, Manchester United have spoken to Wolves to discuss a potential swap deal involving Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Nelson Semedo.
With less than a week left for the transfer window shutting down, Ten Hag is looking for an attacking full-back on the right side of the defense.
Wan-Bissaka is not willing to leave Old Trafford
After coming from Crystal Palace, Aaron Wan-Bissaka has come a long way at Manchester United. The player is considered to be one of the best right-backs in the Premier League.
With the arrival of Ten Hag at the club, Aaron became the second choice for the manager for a right back. The first choice now remains to be the Portuguese right-back Diogo Dalot for the Dutchman.
The right-back made his appearance in a 2-1 win over Liverpool after which he suffered a back injury.
Wan-Bissaka’s resurgence included him playing at the Carabao Cup final against Newcastle which they won 2-0. He was given this chance since Dalot was overrun.
“It’s quite hard to motivate yourself to train hard. Because you’d be telling yourself: ‘What am I training for? When I’m not going to be playing.’ But I had the mindset: ‘I’ll train for myself.”
Wan-Bissaka replied when asked whether during the opening half of the season there were thoughts he may have to leave.
Moreover, Wan Bissaka knows that he is not a part of Ten Hag’s plans and is not a part of the first team.
The English right back’s contract expires next summer with the club having an option to extend it but it seems highly unlikely.
Wan-Bissaka and Manchester United have a good relationship and the player loves the club and its fans.
“I’m happy here.”
Said Wan-Bissaka.
New Season, New Red Devils
Erik Ten Hag is planning to put forward a new Manchester United team for this Premier League season.
He has brought in many players like Mason Mount, Andre Onana, and Rasmus Hojlund. Despite of these signings, Manchester United have had a tough start to the season.
The Red Devils have won 2 matches and lost 1 which does not meet expectations as they were lucky to find a win against Wolves, while Tottenham outplayed them and finally, the 20-time English Champions registered a narrow 3-2 victory against Nottingham Forest yesterday.
The signings brought in world-class players and high hopes. Ten Hag is still trying to fix things by bringing in new players. Manchester United are linked with players like Vlachodimos, Amrabat, Todibo, and many more.
Since the manager currently does not have Wan-Bissaka in his player, it is better for both Manchester United and the right-back if the swap offer goes forward.
Bissaka will receive the playtime he wants and Manchester United will have the attacking right-back they are looking for.
