While Wan-Bissaka remained at the club, there have been fresh suggestions he could move on in January, with ManchesterWorld understanding United were interested in recruiting in that area over the summer.
Writing in his BetVictor blog, Fabrizio Romano said: “Man United will try to find a solution for Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
“He’s considered available on the market as Erik ten Hag already tried to bring in Sergino Dest in August but it was impossible because of Wan-Bissaka staying.”

The Spaniard’s current deal expires next summer, although it could be extended by a further year, but a summer departure could shift his £350,000 per-week wages off the books.
Despite their reported interest in the Everton goalkeeper, Romano has claimed De Gea’s situation is still uncertain.
The journalist wrote: “A decision on David De Gea’s contract will be made after November.
“Pickford is considered an important goalkeeper but talks have not started yet as of now – it depends on De Gea situation, absolutely open.”
