Man Utd close to agreeing £10m-plus deal with West Ham to sell Aaron Wan-Bissaka but wages could scupper transfer

WEST HAM are close to agreeing a deal with Manchester United to sign Aaron Wan Bissaka.

However, the defender’s wage demands could prove problematic when it comes to personal terms.

Wan-Bissaka, 26, has one year remaining on his deal at Old Trafford meaning he could agree a pre-contract with a club overseas in January on lucrative terms.

The Hammers are confident of securing a deal with the Red Devils , with a fee north of £10million, but are pushing to find a compromise on wages.

New boss Julen Lopetegui is keen to sign a right-back and thought he had landed Bayern Munich’s Noussair Mazraoui.

After agreeing a fee with the German giants, the Moroccan snubbed a move to East London and is now set to replace Wan-Bissaka at Old Trafford .

West Ham are also understood to have been put off by Mazraoui’s agent fee, as was the case in their pursuit of Jonathan David .

Southampton’s Kyle Walker-Peters has also been discussed, though he is lower down on the priority list for Lopetegui.

The Hammers also want a striker and have been heavily linked with a move for Aston Villa star John Duran.

They have already had a bid worth £30m rejected, with Villa said to rate the Colombian closer to £40m.
