Aaron Wan-Bissaka has already achieved plenty in his 26 years.

Born in south London to parents from DR Congo, Wan-Bissaka joined local club Junior Elite as a five-year-old, before joining Crystal Palace following a successful trial at the age of eleven.

A winger as a boy, Wan-Bissaka moved to full-back as a 19-year-old following a superb showing in a training match, and went on to make his Premier League debut in February 2018 and win Crystal Palace's Young Player and Player of the Year awards in successive seasons.

Wan-Bissaka joined Manchester United in summer 2019 and reached four major finals with the Red Devils, winning the EFL Cup in 2023 and FA Cup in 2024. He totalled 190 appearances across five seasons at Old Trafford, during which he became one of the Premier League's best tacklers and 1v1 defenders.

The right-back made his England U21 international debut in November 2018, his UEFA Champions League debut in October 2020 and started Manchester United's UEFA Europa League final defeat by Villarreal in May 2021.

He has faced West Ham United on ten occasions, two with Crystal Palace and eight with Manchester United, but will now wear a Claret and Blue shirt.
