United join race for 21-year-old English defender

Crystal Palace defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka is interesting a number of clubs and he is believed to be on a move away from the club in the winter transfer window which reopens in coming weeks.

Struggling English Premier League side Manchester United are believed to be in the chase of the player as they seek to redeem their season from the second half which starts in January.

The Red Devils are in need of a right-back and will hope to snap up Aaron Wan-Bissaka having learnt that he started this season with impressive performances for Palace.

United are seeking to prepare for life after Antonio Valencia, Ashley Young and Matteo Darmian who are either getting old or seeking to leave the club in the winter window.

However, the Old Trafford side is not alone in the race with Liverpool also reported to be interested in the services of Aaron Wan-Bissaka but United boss, Jose Mourinho is ready to win the race by splashing big on the player.

It is therefore not clear if the Portuguese boss will be handed funds when the winter window opens as he seems to have lost the confidence of the club owners and might be sent out of the club due to the poor performance of his side.
