Man Utd in advanced talks to sell Aaron Wan-Bissaka to West Ham in cut-price transfer

The Hammers are keen to bolster their defence this summer and are pushing ahead in negotiations with Manchester United to get a deal over the line, according to talkSPORT. Wan-Bissaka could move to East London for as little as £15 million (€17.8m/ $19.5m), meaning the Red Devils would take a massive loss on the original £50m (€59.5m/$65.1m) they paid for the former Crystal Palace man in 2019.

While they are almost guaranteed to take a loss on Wan-Bissaka, it is a deal that would suit both parties. West Ham are getting a quality player to provide competition or even replace Vladimir Coufal, while Manchester United can free up some room for the incoming Leny Yoro, who is completing his medical ahead of a move from Lille.

Wan-Bissaka was a regular starter at Old Trafford when he was not injured last season. However, with just one year left on his contract, he looks set to end his five-year stay in Manchester. The England international was part of the squad that won the FA Cup against rivals Manchester City a few months ago but that will likely be his last outing in a red shirt.

A deal has not yet been finalised and there is no word on whether Wan-Bissaka would be up for returning to the capital. As it stands, he is set to embark on the club's pre-season tour to the US, but things could change if an official bid is submitted by the Hammers soon.
