# Manchester United: Dharmesh Sheth makes Aaron Wan-Bissaka exit claim

**[Manchester United](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/manchester-united-news/) ‘would listen to offers’ for Aaron Wan-Bissaka this summer, according to [Sky Sports reporter](https://twitter.com/skysports_sheth?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor) Dharmesh Sheth.**

### The lowdown: Wan-Bissaka struggles

Having [impressed](https://www.goal.com/en/news/aaron-wan-bissaka-wins-crystal-palace-player-of-the-season/9rej2ym9mwvo1rblwe1zeoghy) for Crystal Palace whilst making [46 senior outings](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/aaron-wan-bissaka/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/477758) after coming through the academy ranks in London, the Red Devils shelled out an eye-watering £50m to bring the right-back to Old Trafford in 2019 ([BBC](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/48784655)).

However, the 24-year-old former England youth international has failed to recapture his peak form in Manchester despite making [125 appearances](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/aaron-wan-bissaka/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/477758) for the club.

Following the appointment of Ralf Rangnick as interim manager, and the German [reportedly questioning](https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1552179/Man-Utd-Ralf-Rangnick-meeting-Harry-Maguire-Luke-Shaw-Aaron-Wan-Bissaka-Manchester-United) whether the ex-Palace defender was good enough to play for United, Wan-Bissaka was [usurped by Diogo Dalot](https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1553214/Manchester-United-transfer-news-Ralf-Rangnick-Aaron-Wan-Bissaka-Luke-Shaw) in the pecking order, leading to [speculation](https://twitter.com/skysports_sheth/status/1527273079998644225?s=20&t=Y78oHo0NmGhhls3naDZTBg) as to whether there was a future for the Londoner at Old Trafford…

### The latest: United could ‘listen to offers’

Speaking to [GiveMeSport](https://www.givemesport.com/88038293-man-utd-would-listen-to-offers-for-50m-star-at-old-trafford), Sheth has claimed that, although there is no imminent right-back arrival expected, United would still be willing to part ways with Wan-Bissaka in this summer’s transfer window.

He said: “Potentially later in the window. I wasn’t told that it was a priority position.

“As we stand now, I personally haven’t heard of any formal offers that have gone in to United for Wan-Bissaka even though I have been told that they potentially would listen to offers if they did come in.

“Right-back could be a priority position later in the window, but I don’t think it is just now.”

### The verdict: Cash in

Having arrived with a burgeoning reputation as being one of the [brightest defensive prospects](https://www.besoccer.com/new/wan-bissaka-is-the-best-defender-in-the-world-when-it-comes-to-one-on-ones-834093) around, Wan-Bissaka has failed to live up to those lofty expectations at United and could foreseeably benefit from attempting to resurrect his career elsewhere, amid [links](https://www.90min.com/posts/crystal-palace-favourites-to-sign-aaron-wan-bissaka-on-loan) of a return to Crystal Palace.

The Red Devils are unlikely to simply write off the [£22.5m-valued](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/aaron-wan-bissaka/marktwertverlauf/spieler/477758) Englishman, but should offers within reason be forthcoming, then selling him this summer could well be the best outcome for all parties.

Last season, Wan-Bissaka failed to directly contribute to a single goal in [25 appearances](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/aaron-wan-bissaka/leistungsdaten/spieler/477758/plus/0?saison=2021) across all competitions, an aspect of his game which many (including Paul Scholes) have [criticised](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-10177613/Paul-Scholes-slammed-Man-Uniteds-Aaron-Wan-Bissaka-useless-ball-right.html) since arriving in Manchester as rival clubs’ full-backs [flourish](https://thefootballfaithful.com/ranking-the-five-best-attacking-full-backs-in-the-premier-league-right-now/) in providing an impact in the final third.

The 24-year-old has seemingly deemed [surplus to requirements](https://twitter.com/skysportspl/status/1527304063326756864) by new manager Erik ten Hag, with the Dutchman [reportedly](https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/man-united-transfer-news-targets-24574624) eyeing Inter Milan star Denzel Dumfries as a replacement.

If reasonable offers aren’t forthcoming for the full-back who was once hailed by Statman Dave for his [‘phenomenal’](https://twitter.com/StatmanDave/status/1138763877997588480) defensive prowess, then United may be willing to accept a loan move as a compromise to give the defender a fresh start elsewhere.
