According to the latest reports from renowned Sky Sports journalist Dharmesh Sheth, the transfer of Manchester United defender Wan Bissaka is currently at an impasse, with the main issue being that the two sides are still in advanced talks over a severance package. A medical examination scheduled for 4pm local time today has been postponed as a result.
Dharmesh Sheth has pointed out that the terms of departure between Wan-Bissaka and Manchester United are yet to be finalized, which has put the process of his transfer in serious jeopardy. While West Ham United FC have shown keen interest in Wan-Bissaka and would like to finalize the deal as soon as possible, the insistence on the part of Manchester United has complicated matters.
According to previous news from the Manchester Evening News, Manchester United will pay Wan-Bissaka a whopping £5.6million severance package in compensation for his departure. This figure undoubtedly increases the cost of the transfer and makes West Ham United need to think more carefully in their negotiations.
It was previously reported that Wan-Bissaka had arrived in London, which seemed to signal that the transfer was close to completion. However, that optimistic expectation is now becoming less certain with the delay in severance talks and the postponement of the medical.
For Wan-Bissaka personally, he obviously wants to resolve the transfer issue as soon as possible so that he can start a new journey with a new team. Manchester United and West Ham United also need to reach a consensus as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary trouble before the transfer window closes.
Currently, all parties are in a tight negotiation, hoping to solve this transfer problem as soon as possible. Whether Wan-Bissaka can finally join West Ham United as he wishes will depend on the progress and result of the next negotiation.
