‘Training with Zaha, Bolasie toughened me' - Crystal Palace’s Wan-Bissaka

Crystal Palace right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka says training with Wilfried Zaha and Yannick Bolasie - on loan to Anderlecht from Everton - has made him a better player.

The defender who was promoted to the first team of Palace in January 2018 was handed his senior debut by Roy Hodgson a month later and has been impressive ever since.

The youngster is currently the best tackler in Europe’s big leagues having made more successful tackles [66 of 91] than any other player in the Premier League, Bundesliga, Serie A and Ligue 1.
