While it’s clear that Diogo Dalot is the man for Erik ten Hag at this moment in time down the right-hand side of Manchester United’s defence, it’s also clear Aaron Wan Bissaka hasn’t convinced him.
The Englishman has made just the one Premier League appearance this season, totalling an abysmal four minutes of football this season, which is a stark contrast to his previous tallies following his €35m transfer from Crystal Palace in 2019.
Therefore, the idea that Manchester United want a new right-back isn’t a surprise, as Ten Hag wants competition at every position, which Wan Bissaka isn’t exactly providing Dalot at this moment in time.
They point out that Inter will have to sell someone big in the summer, and the Netherlands international seems the most likely.
They recall that Chelsea are keen on him too, but then add that everyone must ‘beware of Manchester United’, where Ten Hag ‘believes he has the right arguments’ to sign the Inter star for his club.
This means ‘the game is open’, but only for next summer, with the Serie A side unwilling to part ways with their player in January.
