Manchester City to rival Manchester United for Aaron Wan-Bissaka?

A report claims that Crystal Palace right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka remains a target for Manchester City as they are seeking cover in that position this summer.

Manchester City reportedly intend to rival Manchester United for the signing of Crystal Palace defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

Right-back is rumoured to be one of the areas Pep Guardiola plans to strengthen in the summer, along with a new defensive midfielder - their priority signing - a young attacker and goalkeeper cover.

Man United were widely considered to be the favourites to land Wan-Bissaka, but they may have turned their focus elsewhere as Diogo Dalot looks ready to start regularly at the back next season.

According to the Daily Mail, Man City intend to follow up their interest in the 21-year-old by making a bid as he will also boost their homegrown quota.

Wan-Bissaka is regarded as one of the brightest prospects around, despite only making his Palace debut in the second half of last season

Eagles boss Roy Hodgson recently admitted that his side will have to consider any big-money offers tabled for the England Under-21s international, who is valued at around the £40m mark.
