Saudi Arabian side Al-Nassr has set its sights on acquiring Manchester United’s full-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka, introducing a fresh twist to the ongoing transfer saga. Despite the high-profile signings of Sadio Mane, Aymeric Laporte, and Alex Telles last summer, Cristiano Ronaldo’s side is actively seeking defensive reinforcement.
The pursuit led Manchester United to submit a £20 million bid for Tottenham’s Emerson Royal, only to face rejection over the weekend. In response to this setback, Al-Nassr swiftly redirected their attention, making Wan-Bissaka their primary transfer target, as reported by The Telegraph.
Wan-Bissaka, who arrived at Manchester United in a £50 million deal from Crystal Palace in 2019, is now at the center of attention with 18 months remaining on his current contract. Surprisingly, despite the full-back’s consistent presence, having started in 13 Premier League matches this term, Manchester United is open to offers for the talented defender.
In a recent development, Manchester United turned down an intriguing offer from Inter Milan. The proposed deal included Denzel Dumfries joining the club, while Wan-Bissaka would potentially make a move to the iconic San Siro. The rejection adds another layer of complexity to Wan-Bissaka’s uncertain future at Old Trafford.
As the transfer window unfolds, the spotlight remains on Wan-Bissaka, with Al-Nassr’s interest intensifying and the player’s potential departure creating ripples in the football transfer landscape.
