'It couldn’t have happened to a nicer kid' - former coach talks up 'incredible' Wan-Bissaka

Manchester United’s newest addition, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, came out of nowhere to emerge as one of the stars of the future according to one of his former coaches.

Scott Guyett, Head of Sports Science and Strength and Conditioning at Crystal Palace, was delighted to see the opportunity to join United come Wan-Bissaka’s way despite his disappointment at the defender's departure from Selhurst Park.

The 21-year-old signed for £50 million ($63m) as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer moved to inject some dynamism and quality into his back line, but Guyett admits it isn’t a move he initially saw coming.
