Manchester United right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka has been backed by pundit Frank McAvennie to leave the club this summer.
It would have been considered a safe bet three months ago, or even at the beginning of the season, but Aaron Wan-Bissaka appears to be one of a few players to have turned a corner under Erik ten Hag this season.
The right-back came on in the second half of Sunday’s 2-0 Carabao Cup win over Newcastle, replacing Diogo Dalot, who had been booked in the opening minutes for a foul that hardly warranted a telling off let alone a yellow card.
One pundit has claimed that there will be more transfer activity going on at United, with Wan-Bissaka tipped to be facing the exit door.
Speaking to Football Insider, McAvennie had this to say when asked if he thinks Wan-Bissaka could be moved on in the summer should United look to sign a better option at right-back.
He said: “I think so. I think the fans are not happy with him. He has not set the heather alight, he comes in and has been lethargic.
“I think he can do better than what he has been doing. Whether that is something to do with the manager not believing in him I do not know.
“There is going to be movement. There are a few of them that are going to move on and it is time for a change. Ten Hag has got them all interested in Man United again.”
I think for a pundit, it’s pretty telling that McAvennie doesn’t watch a lot of United if he thinks fans aren’t happy with Wan-Bissaka.
Fans are a lot more happy than they were with Wan-Bissaka. I don’t think anyone could disagree with that.
