Erik ten Hag hails Manchester United's 'comeback star' after transfer refusal

Erik ten Hag has hailed Aaron Wan-Bissaka's impact since returning to the Manchester United fold ahead of their clash with Leicester City on Sunday afternoon.

The right-back has started in 13 of the Red Devils' last 16 matches in all competitions since the World Cup break and has taken advantage of the chance handed to him by Ten Hag. The United boss gave Wan-Bissaka an opportunity in the Carabao Cup tie against Burnley after Diogo Dalot picked up an injury while on duty with Portugal.

And Wan-Bissaka has staked a claim for a regular place in the starting XI from then on, although Dalot is now back from his injury lay-off. It gives Ten Hag healthy competition in the right-back position and he could have major selection dilemma on his hands before the Carabao Cup final next weekend.
