Three years ago, Manchester United thought they’d found a long-term solution for the right-back slot when they coughed up $60.5 million to sign the established Crystal Palace defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka. Now 24 and out of the first-team picture at Old Trafford, Wan-Bissaka is to be offered a way out by the legendary Jose Mourinho.A lot of wasted money😅Eight of Manchester United’s worst signings post Sir Alex Ferguson ⬇️ pic.twitter.com/8xoVGUbbcF— Man United News (@ManUtdMEN) May 2, 2022 The former United, Chelsea and Spurs boss has already signed Tammy Abraham from the Blues, Rui Patricio from Wolves and Ainsley Maitland-Niles on loan from Arsenal, in his first season in charge of the Serie A side.Roma’s team also contains former United players Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Chris Smalling, and given the way the latter, as well as Abraham, have rebuilt their careers at the club, a move to Italy may well appeal to Wan-Bissaka.Whether or not the defender will be shown the exit at Old Trafford is still unclear, as is his price tag, with two years still left to run on his United contract.🚨 JUST IN: Roma manager Jose Mourinho is considering a move for Aaron Wan-Bissaka. The full-back is also drawing admiring glances from Spanish giants Atletico Madrid #mufc #mujournal [@TomBarclay_, @JackRosser_] pic.twitter.com/SvWVxN0Ju5— United Journal (@theutdjournal) May 4, 2022 The incoming Dutch manager Erik Ten Hag wants to bring Ajax right-back Jurrien Timber with him when he makes the switch from Amsterdam to Manchester, so Wan-Bissaka’s stay with the Red Devils should be cut short before the defender becomes a forgotten man in world football.Mourinho has a good track record of bringing failing Premier League stars to Italy. Wan-Bissaka could well be the next.
