Man United: Pundit names THREE players to ‘improve’ squad
Former Liverpool defender Steve Nicol, who now works as a pundit for ESPN FC, reckons Aaron Wan-Bissaka and James Maddison would be fine additions to the Manchester United squad.
Wan-Bissaka, 21, had a fine first full season in the Crystal Palace first team.
The right-back made 35 Premier League appearances, registering three assists.
Leicester midfielder James Maddison scored seven goals and assisted seven others in his debut campaign in the Premier League.
Manchester United have to get to a certain level. But with Wan Bissaka and Maddison in particular, there’s an upside
Steve Nicol on Manchester United transfer targets
Both players have been linked with a move to Manchester United this summer.
Maddison’s team-mate Harry Maguire is also rumoured to be on United’s wish list.
Nicol admits Maguire is an improvement on United’s current defenders, but he is not convinced as much as he is with Maddison and Wan-Bissaka.
“Of all those players [linked to United], there are three that you know what you will probably get,” he said.
