Serie A Club Try to Hijack Wan-Bissaka Deal. Breaking news suggests that a major Serie A club is attempting to hijack the deal to transfer Aaron Wan-Bissaka to West Ham. Reports indicate that Inter Milan are exploring whether Manchester United remain open to a swap deal involving Denzel Dumfries, which would see Aaron Wan-Bissaka move to Old Trafford.
However, the report also states that Manchester United’s preference is still to sign Noussair Mazraoui from Bayern Munich, and they are pushing to sell Wan-Bissaka to the Hammers.
The latter part of the rumour sharply contrasts with other stories suggesting that the Red Devils are playing hardball with West Ham and refusing to budge on the price.
The former Crystal Palace defender is reportedly holding out for a £3 million loyalty payment from Manchester United before he will agree to any move away. This condition presumably applies to any potential transfer to Italy, meaning Inter will face the same issues that West Ham has encountered.
