A deal for Aaron Wan-Bissaka to join Manchester United has finally been agreed.
BBC Sport report that a £50m deal has been agreed between the Reds and Crystal Palace, with the young right-back’s wages set to increase from £10,000 per-week to around £80,000 per-week.
This is a deal that seems to have dragged out all summer, and United fans are buzzing to see the 21-year-old is finally set to complete his Old Trafford move.

Wan-Bissaka is an excellent signing for United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. For too long the Reds have had to settle for converted wingers at full-back; Antonio Valencia and Ashley Young have both operated in the position not particularly effectively in the last few seasons.
The England U21 international is a specialist full-back so will offer great stability to United’s defence. Wan-Bissaka is also quick and is not afraid to join the attack. He is likely to start ahead of Ashley Young and Diogo Dalot next season and United fans have been expressing their delight at the news on twitter.
The future is bright @awbissaka 🇾🇪

Aaron Wan Bissaka isn’t just an incredibly talented young player who we are so excited about, but we’re also excited it puts an end to the Ashley Young nightmare before we could deal with it any more.

£45m for a 21 year old full back with tremendous potential is fantastic business by United. Excited to see Wan Bissaka play at Old Trafford. On to the next one. #mufc

£45m for Aaron Wan Bissaka is incredible business. We’ve done a really good job to get that fee agreed.

Buzzing with the Wan Bissaka signing but the stick / abuse being dished out on here to Ashley Young by so called Reds is pathetic.

Finally it will be an end of Ashley Young nightmare at @ManUtd. Finally United will have a proper RB after many years. We are glad to have you @awbissaka Welcome.
