Aaron Wan-Bissaka's future at Manchester United began to look bleak once Erik ten Hag got the Reds ticking with the playing style he wanted - make no mistake - but his reluctance to sign another full-back in the January transfer window shows the manager's trust in the player.
The £50million signing from Crystal Palace was brought in under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in a transfer window that saw United sign other Premier League talents like Harry Maguire and Dan James, who have by far and large failed to make the desired impressions. Bruno Fernandes came in and changed that narrative in January, but the trio had an uphill battle from their first season forwards.
Wan-Bissaka has always been noted for his defensive qualities which are second to none in comparison with other full-backs in the league such as Trent Alexander-Arnold, though his attacking attributes have always been in question. For a team with the aspirations of United - who wish to be a top side able to dominate matches - the signing always seemed a tad puzzling.
