Crystal Palace ‘consider transfer for Man Utd defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka as they look to bring back ex-star on loan’

CRYSTAL PALACE are considering a transfer swoop to bring back Aaron Wan-Bissaka on loan, according to reports.

Manchester United signed the right-back for £50million in 2019.

But with Erik ten Hag yet to assess his new squad fully, the Eagles may try and land their former ace in a temporary switch.

As reported by The Athletic, a deal is still a long way off because Palace have not made an official approach.

And it is unclear whether the Red Devils would allow the England Under-21 international to leave.

Wan-Bissaka came through the Crystal Palace academy, joining the club aged 11 and progressing into a first-team star.

His big-money move to Old Trafford made him the most expensive English transfer for a player with no senior Three Lions caps – and the defender is still yet to get on the pitch under Gareth Southgate.

Wan-Bissaka was the first-choice right-back under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

But since Ralf Rangnick took over, Diogo Dalot has been getting plenty of game time with the full-backs rotated.

Ironically, United have lost four of Wan-Bissaka’s last six Premier League games and conceded 12 goals.

Palace are keen to bolster at right-back this summer.

Nathan Ferguson has endured a torrid time with recovery from his injury in July 2020 and has played just eight senior minutes in 27 months.

Joel Ward and Nathaniel Clyne have done well when used by Patrick Vieira.

But the Eagles would ideally want someone to match the quality of Tyrick Mitchell on the other side.

And Wan-Bissaka would no doubt be a popular signing if the Croydon-born defender returns back to South London from United – just as Wilfried Zaha did.
