Manchester United want to find a solution for Aaron Wan-Bissaka, according to Fabrizio Romano.

The right-back has made just one appearance this season as he struggled with injury, and is clearly not rated by Erik ten Hag as Diogo Dalot is his first choice.

With a number of clubs interested, United have made it a priority to sort his future out, with either a loan or permanent deal, and the club will then dip into the market to find a replacement for him if he goes in the winter window.

The Englishman arrived at Old Trafford for £50m from Crystal Palace in 2019, but has failed to impress after initially starting brightly, and there doesn’t seem to be a future for him at Old Trafford.

Speaking on the Here We Go Podcast, Romano claimed that there were three clubs interested in taking him on loan.

“For the right back they are looking to find a solution for Wan-Bissaka. The priority is to find a solution for Wan-Bissaka,” he stated.

“For Wan-Bissaka there is a possibility with West Ham, Wolves and Crystal Palace. These three clubs are speaking to Man United on a potential loan deal, let’s see.

“if they will find a way, then Man United will explore the right backs market for a backup option because Dalot will be the starter.”

TIF thoughts on Wan-Bissaka…

It is clear that the defender definitely needs to leave the club, and gain a fresh start elsewhere.

The 25-year-old can still be a successful Premier League defender at one of the three clubs Romano mentioned, and a return to Crystal Palace might benefit him.

Dalot is doing well as United’s first choice, and a backup option, whether experienced or young, can be found easily if Wan-Bissaka departs, and a defender with strong ability on the ball will likely be targeted by Ten Hag.

A good loan spell in the Premier League would raise his transfer value, and with his deal running out in 2024, they will ideally sell him within the next two windows.
