Manchester United defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka has attributed his career resurgence to the influence of manager Erik ten Hag. The 25-year-old right-back had faced a decline in his status at the club before Ten Hag’s arrival last summer. However, under the Dutchman’s guidance, Wan-Bissaka has reclaimed his spot as a critical player in the team.
Wan-Bissaka signed for £50 million in 2019 and expressed his gratitude for Ten Hag’s positive impact on his on-field performance and overall growth. He acknowledged learning from Ten Hag’s tactical approach and adapting his playstyle accordingly.
The defender’s offensive contributions have notably improved, with Wan-Bissaka recently providing an assist in Manchester United’s victory over Wolves. He credited Ten Hag for emphasizing his role in advancing the team’s attacking endeavors and creating opportunities, whether he has possession or not. “I just want to keep improving and learning more, especially from someone like him.” The fullback said about his manager.
Wan-Bissaka’s revival has not gone unnoticed, as he has consistently been chosen as the first-choice right-back for the team. His contract situation, however, remains uncertain, with his current deal technically expiring next summer, although the club holds an option for an additional year.

Amid injuries to Shaw and Malacia, Manchester United urgently seeks a left-back solution. Chelsea’s Cucurella, overlooked by Pochettino, emerges as a prime target. Talks are underway for a loan deal before the deadline due to limited options. United aims to reinforce defensive ranks.
Erik ten Hag, the manager, is keen to bolster his squad’s defensive depth to navigate a busy schedule. Chelsea’s sidelined Cucurella is a prime target for Manchester United in the transfer window. As discussions persist, United aims for a loan deal with potential purchase options for the left-back. The pursuit reflects United’s urgent need to bolster their defensive lineup due to injuries.
With various left-back options reviewed, Marc Cucurella is the prime choice for Ten Hag’s tactics. United aims to bolster defense before the transfer window shuts, eyeing Cucurella’s availability. The move depends on Chelsea’s agreement and loan terms negotiation but would greatly help the Red Devils in their squad-depth.
