Manchester United defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka could continue his career at the Old Trafford outfit next amidst reports linking him to a transfer exit from the club this summer, MySportDab reports.
Manchester United have signed two top players since the break of the 2024 summer transfer window. The Premier League giants completed deals for highly-rated Dutch attacker Johsua Zirkzee from Bologna.
Another highly-rated youngster, Leny Yoro, has been added to squad in a £52m transfer from Lille to bolster the team’s defence ahead of the new campaign.
Meanwhile, sources close to the club have reveal they are keen on adding another defensive signing, preferably a right-back, to their options in addition to Leny Yoro.
This means Aaron Wan-Bissaka could leave this summer to make way for a new right-back signing.
This has generated speculations on the future of the English defender. Wan-Bissaka has a year left on his Manchester United contract after signing an extension last season.
While speculations continue to rife over his future, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has confirmed Manchester United will not sell Wan-Bissaka until they are able to sign a right-back this summer.

This means Wan-Bissaka’s chances of continuing with the Old Trafford outfit will depend on whether Manchester United are able to sign his replacement or not.

Last season, he struggled with injuries but managed 22 Premier League, 3 Champions League, and one EFL Cup appearances with 2 League assists.
He has been linked to United’s Premier League rivals West Ham United, including Jose Mourinho’s Fenerbahce in Turkey.
