Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will reportedly try Aaron Wan-Bissaka at centre back in pre-season in an attempt to solve Manchester United's defensive question marks, amid interest in right back Kieran Trippier.
Wan-Bissaka, traditionally an out-and-out right back, has never played centrally before but is an excellent defensive player and a fine tackler.
And according to the Sun, United boss Solskjaer is keen to try him in the middle of the defence to see if it would be a viable long-term option.
The 23-year-old could be tried next to another centre back - probably captain Harry Maguire - in a back four, or might be used on the right side of a three, as Reece James and Kyle Walker do at Chelsea and Manchester City respectively.
