As reported by Fichajes, Manchester United are ready to listen to offers for Aaron Wan-Bissaka and collect funds to sign Crystal Palace winger Michael Olise this summer.
The French youth player has been in fine form for the Eagles even after struggling with an injury prone season. He has racked up 10 goals and provided five assists in 18 appearances for the English club.
The Red Devils, under the leadership of new owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe are gearing up for an exciting transfer window. They are planning for a major squad overhaul in the upcoming months.
They will prefer signings a new winger to complete their attacking trio. Right winger Jadon Sancho’s future still hangs by a thread and Antony’s poor form has raised eyebrows regarding his status at the club.

Amad Diallo is inexperienced, and they need a more lethal and consistent player to lead the line. Man Utd are aiming to rope in young players as a long-term investment and Olise fits the bill perfectly.
Meanwhile, Wan-Bissaka could be sacrificed in this deal since his contract is set to expire next year. The right-back has been a hardworking player for the club since moving to Old Trafford from Palace in 2019.
He was close to leaving the club in January 2023, but has since turned the tables under Erik ten Hag. The English star contributed with his hard tackling skills and disciplined defensive performances.

The club might now prefer to sell him and open up space to add a new defender this summer. This will also help them collect funds to add to their transfer kitty and this can be helpful in their mission to sign Olise.
Ratcliffe’s team could pitch the right-back to his former club Palace, but it remains to be seen whether the Eagles can afford to sign him. United will need to work harder to sell several of their first team players as there might be little interest from other Premier League clubs.
Olise’s transfer price remains undisclosed as of now.
