West Ham should be going all out for Aaron Wan-Bissaka, with Manchester United targeting a January move to sign Jeremie Frimpong.
That’s according to a report from Sky Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg who claims that Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag is very interested in bringing the Bayer Leverkusen ace to Old Trafford in January.
The Scot desperately needed a right-back then and he still does now.
Vladimir Coufal just isn’t good enough and Ben Johnson seems to have regressed. Meanwhile, Harrison Ashby’s future at the club remains up in the air.
Manchester United signing Jeremie Frimpong would certainly leave the door wide open for the Hammers to bring in AWB.
The ex-Crystal Palace man is already behind Diogo Dalot in the right-back pecking order at Old Trafford.
And if Ten Hag makes another big money right-back signing, Wan-Bissaka’s days at Old Trafford could well be numbered…
Door wide open for West Ham with Manchester United very keen on Jeremie Frimpong
The Red Devils are lining up a January transfer window move for the 21-year-old Bayer Leverkusen right-back according to Florian Plettenberg:
Leverkusen could demand around €30 million (£26 million) for Frimpong (Buli News). That sounds like great value for Man United.
The ex-Manchester city and Celtic ace really does seem to be the real deal. In fact, Celtic fan site 67 Hail Hail once described Frimpong as ‘unplayable’.
So if Frimpong does end up moving to Old Trafford, Wan-Bissaka’s days there will surely be numbered. And West Ham need to take advantage of that situation, if it does indeed arise.
He joined Manchester United three years ago from Crystal Palace for around £50 million (Independent).
Wan-Bissaka possesses blistering pace. And that recovery speed would enable us to push further up the pitch, which ties in perfectly with Moyes saying that he wants his team to become more of a possession-based side.
If you are to do that, you need real recovery pace at the back and AWB possesses that in abundance.
The Manchester United right-back is an exceptional defender and is one of the very best tacklers around.
Manchester United were allegedly demanding around £25 million for Wan-Bissaka (Si).
We really think that David Moyes should make an attempt to bring Aaron Wan-Bissaka to West Ham in the January transfer window.
And if Manchester United sign Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen, we think that the Hammers might just have a free run at the 24-year-old ex-Palace star.
