Wan-Bissaka Swaps Man Utd For West Ham In £15m

Wan-Bissaka leaves the Red Devils after five seasons at Old Trafford and has agreed a seven-year contract at the London Stadium.

West Ham are paying Manchester United £15m for Wan Bissaka.

The 26-year-old made 190 appearances, scored two goals and won the FA Cup and Carabao Cup during his time at Manchester United.

He is West Ham United's eighth summer signing, joining Jean-Clair Todibo, Crysencio Summerville, Luis Guilherme, Niclas Fullkrug, Wes Foderingham, Max Kilman and Guido Rodriguez in moving to East London.

"It was a no brainer for me to join West Ham - I'm excited and happy to be here," said Wan-Bissaka.

"It's an amazing feeling to be back in London, and I'm excited for what's coming. I was born here, so I know the ins and outs of London, which plays a big part in my life, so to be back playing in this city means a lot to me.

"I'm happy to be here, am grateful for the warm welcome, and I am excited to be playing for the club and will give it my all.

"I can't wait to get on the pitch, get to know the players, and push on from there. I see a team that is in it together, that will push each other to win, and a group that has got each others' backs through thick and thin, so being part of that and having that insurance helps a lot when you are surrounded by a good squad."

West Ham technical director Tim Steidten added: "I am delighted we've been able to get the deal to sign Aaron over the line. He's exactly the type of player we're looking to attract to this club in the prime years of his career.

"He's an incredibly talented defender who we rate very highly - superb in one-on-one situations. He's versatile too, which is clearly another positive. He's played over 170 Premier League games during his career - he knows the division inside-out.

"It's a really exciting time for us as we prepare for the start of the new season this weekend."
