DEVASTATING NEWS: Reported live by Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United agrees deal with Turkish club to sell star player who has been the real deal for Man United for just €13m. According to reports, Manchester United have closed in on their first sale of the summer after negotiating star player transfer to Galatasaray which claims there has been an ‘agreement reached on everything’ between all parties, with only the transfer fee left to hash out. Agreement ‘reached on everything’ between United and league-winners for £90k-a-week player’s exit.

Manchester United are on the brink of completing their first summer sale, negotiating the transfer of Aaron Wan-Bissaka to Galatasaray. According to the Turkish publication Fanatik, an agreement has been reached between all parties involved, with only the transfer fee left to be finalized.

United, aiming to bolster their summer transfer budget, have set Wan-Bissaka’s asking price at €15 million (£12.6 million). However, the Turkish champions are reluctant to meet this valuation and are hoping to negotiate a fee in the range of €7-10 million (£5.9-£8.4 million), aligning with Wan-Bissaka’s own request for a reduced price tag.

Is Wan-Bissaka’s departure justified?
If this deal goes through, many fans might argue that United are being shortchanged. At 26 years old, Wan-Bissaka is not only a starter but also one of the top one-on-one defenders in Europe. Selling him for a mere £6 million might seem unwise, especially when his defensive prowess could still provide valuable depth to the squad.

Nonetheless, Wan-Bissaka, who reportedly earns £90,000 per week, might be pushing for an exit, compelling the board to approve his transfer. In such a scenario, it would be prudent for him to insist that Galatasaray meet a reasonable fee for his services.
