Aaron Wan-Bissaka is in the Manchester United house!
After weeks of negotiations, United are closing in on their second signing of the summer with the 21-year-old Crystal Palace full-back set to be that man.
Credit to The Sun who have been great on this story from the get-go, and once again they’re in there first as they got themselves a picture of Wan-Bissaka arriving at United’s Carrington training ground earlier today.
In their latest, it is being claimed that Wan-Bissaka has arrived for the second (and presumably last) part of his United medical, with the right-back set to sign a six-year deal at Old Trafford shortly.
Although the photo may not be the clearest, you can just about make out Wan-Bissaka’s head sitting in the back-set. Apparently, his entourage arrived in two cars at around lunchtime.

I’m not normally one for crediting Edward Woodward, regular followers will know my views on the former banker, but he deserves praise here. The vice-chairman has stuck to his guns and negotiated well – eventually pushing the Wan-Bissaka deal over the line at a great price. Many thought he’d cost more than £50million, and for a player who could be our right-back for a decade, this is a super fee from our point of view.
Now the excitement builds amongst fans as you get the impression it won’t be too long before we see Wan-Bissaka holding the famous United jersey aloft. Could we see an announcement tonight? In my opinion, it’s possible…
