According to the latest report from renowned soccer journalist Romano, Manchester United defender Wan Bissaka will officially sign with West Ham United today, marking the end of the England defender's Manchester United career. Romano revealed that all the transfer-related documents are ready and Wan-Bissaka will sign a contract with West Ham United today for a transfer fee of 15 million pounds.
Sky Sports Germany also confirmed the news and said that Wan-Bissaka's medical has been successfully completed and he will sign a six-year contract with West Ham United. This transfer is undoubtedly a major reinforcement for West Ham United, who will be acquiring a defensive stalwart with a wealth of experience in the Premier League.
Wan-Bissaka has been known to fans for his excellent defensive abilities and consistent performances since joining Manchester United from Crystal Palace in 2019. In his four seasons at United, he has appeared in 190 games for the team, scoring two goals and dishing out 13 assists. Despite his relatively low-profile performances on the offensive side of the ball, Wan-Bissaka's contribution on the defensive side of the ball was indispensable. His speed and strength made him a difficult defender to break down, providing solidity to the United defense.
However, with the constant changes in United's squad and tactical adjustments, Wan-Bissaka's position in the team has gradually been marginalized. This move to West Ham United may be a new start for him, and he is expected to rediscover his best form in a new environment and contribute to West Ham United's relegation and European qualification.
Wan-Bissaka is assessed at €20 million in the German transfer market. This price is not as high as the transfer fees of some top defenders, but it is enough to prove his strength and potential in the Premier League. For West Ham United, signing such a powerful player at a relatively reasonable price is undoubtedly a good deal.
With the official announcement of Wan-Bissaka's transfer, the fans of Manchester United and West Ham United will have new expectations and concerns. They will keep a close eye on the England defender's performance in his new home and expect him to bring more victories and honors to the team in the new season.
