Manchester United right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka has really hit the ground running since he arrived at the club from Crystal Palace in the summer.
There were concerns that the Red Devils had overpaid after shelling out £50m on the 21-year-old back in June. However, the defender has proven to be an excellent purchase so far with United’s official Twitter account revealing an incredible stat about the player’s season so far:

Wan-Bissaka is a beast. Absolute bargain and a monster at the back. So happy with him.

Of course, it can be easy to get carried away about a player but Wan-Bissaka has shown already his excellent tackling ability and one-on-one defensive qualities.
Improvements on the attacking side of his game still need to be made, I think it’s fair to say, but the signs are extremely promising that United have now got a first-choice right-back for many years to come.
