In February 2018, in a Premier League match-up with Tottenham Hotspur, an exciting right-back was named in the Crystal Palace line-up: Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
Aaron played exceptionally well with his well timed tackling ability standing out, and the maturity he showed was a astounding. His tackle against Marcus Rashford in a 3-2 defeat against Manchester United at Selhurst Park is a picture to be framed in our minds when we think about him. He quickly became a fan favourite among SE25 fans.
Fast forward 12 months from his debut, and Aaron Wan-Bissaka is now worth at least £40million and is on the wish list of many top European clubs, such as Bayern Munich, Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea. Should Crystal Palace sell the talented defender? The answer is a big NO.
If Aaron continues to play the way he is currently for another 12 months, contributing with a few more assists, he will be easily worth £100million.
Aaron has the potential to play for the elite clubs in Europe like Barcelona and Real Madrid, and both the player and Crystal Palace should look at the bigger picture.
Aaron should continue his development while playing for his boyhood club and continue enjoying playing in the Premier League. As a Palace fan, I see a distant possibility of Crystal Palace playing in the Europa League next season bBy winning the FA Cup). Crystal Palace cannot afford to lose their top players like Aaron as they are considered gold dust to this club.
With players like Aaron the future of the club looks bright, which means he simply cannot leave.
