Diogo Dalot or Aaron Wan-Bissaka? That was not a sensible question throughout the first months of Manchester United's season.
Dalot was the first-choice right-back and he was arguably the finest player in his position in the Premier League. He enjoyed an excellent start to the new campaign, whilst Wan-Bissaka was forgotten and sidelined with a back injury.
The latter had also been informed last summer that he was free to leave the club and that seemed the best option for his career. There was a feeling Wan-Bissaka, who was signed for £50million in 2019, would benefit from a clean slate elsewhere.
