# Manchester United agree deal to sign Wan-Bissaka

Manchester United and Crystal Palace have come to an agreement over the transfer of Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

United have agreed to pay £55m for the Palace star, which will be a world-record fee for a fullback if the deal goes through.

Wan-Bissaka played for England in their 2-1 defeat to France in the under-21 European Championships on Tuesday night, scoring a stoppage-time own goal after a shaky performance.

However, his performances for Palace in the Premier League last season were enough for United to warrant splashing £55m on the right-back.

The 21-year-old nailed down his place in the Palace side and was considered to be one of the best fullbacks in the top-flight last season, although he missed out on a place in the England senior squad to Trent Alexander-Arnold and Kyle Walker.
