PREMIER LEAGUE SWAP SHOP
Man Utd are weighing up a potential swap deal for Crystal Palace’s Michael Olise as they consider using Wan-Bissaka as a makeweight in the deal, according to reports.
Wan-Bissaka has been in and out the team at Old Trafford this season with Erik ten Hag trying a number of different backlines as he attempts to get Man Utd higher up the table.
The former England Under-21 international has made 15 appearances in all competitions, 11 of those from the start, as the Red Devils struggle to match last season’s results under Ten Hag.
Man Utd are out of the Champions League and League Cup, while they are drifting in the Premier League, with their 2-1 loss to Nottingham Forest on December 30 seeing them drop down to eighth in the table.
There have already been rumours this week that Crystal Palace’s Olise could be one of the first signings of the Ratcliffe era with Man Utd looking to make a summer move.
And now the Daily Star claims that Wan-Bissaka ‘could still end up back at Crystal Palace – as part of a Manchester United bid to land’ Olise in the summer window.
Man Utd exercised the one-year extension option in Wan-Bissaka’s contract last month putting them ‘in a potentially stronger position when they make their move for Olise’.
Olise ‘has a buy-out clause’ in his new four-year contract with the amount needed to trigger a transfer unknown but the Red Devils will be hoping ‘a cash-plus-player offer will boost their own chances of persuading the South Londoners to sell them ex-Reading man Olise’.
