Exclusive: Man Utd Agree Fee With Crystal Palace to Sign Aaron Wan-Bissaka - Deal Could Reach £60m

​Manchester United have agreed a fee with Crystal Palace for full back Aaron Wan-Bissaka - with the deal potentially reaching north of £60m with future add-ons considered.

The two clubs have been in negotiations over a deal in recent weeks, with United initially seeing two bids turned down after ​Palace issued disappointment with the structure of payments. 

Talks continued on Wednesday with optimism that an agreement could be struck, and 90min understands a point has now been reached where both clubs are happy with the deal.

It's understood that ​an initial £55m fee has been agreed, though - according to the noises coming out of Palace, at least - the deal could surpass £60m in add-ons related to the amount of appearances he makes at ​United, and to the amount of international caps he earns for England.

United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had identified the England Under-21 international as the club's primary target at right back - despite links with the likes of Max Aarons and Elseid Hysaj in recent days - and was keen for United to press ahead. Solskjaer is also believed to be in the market for one or two central midfielders, a centre half, and a right winger.

Wan-Bissaka made his real breakthrough in the Premier League only last season, and has made 42 appearances in the top flight to date - with 46 for Palace overall. 

He is currently with England's Under-21s at the European Championships, but scored an injury time own goal to condemn his side to a 2-1 defeat against France in his side's opening game.

Upon completion of the deal, Wan-Bissaka would become United's second signing of the summer, following the arrival of Daniel James from Swansea City, and the most expensive English player of all time.
