MANCHESTER UNITED will let Aaron Wan-Bissaka go ‘home’ to Crystal Palace if the clubs can agree a loan deal.
Wan-Bissaka is well out of favour under Erik ten Hag — playing just four minutes for the first team as a substitute back in August and only getting a brief look at the bench in recent weeks.
Palace boss Patrick Vieira would take their former defender back but a loan move is the only way he can afford him — and that will take some negotiating.
Wan-Bissaka, 24, needs a fresh start after his Old Trafford move turned into a nightmare.
United paid £45million for the right-back in the summer of 2019.
But their chances of getting decent money from selling are limited because of his fall from grace and the fact he has less than two years left on a five-year deal.

Palace may have to pick up all of Wan-Bissaka’s £80,000-a-week wages making it an expensive deal even without having to pay a transfer fee.
Wan-Bissaka will also want his long-term future sorted, adding a further complication to negotiating a return to Selhurst Park.
Meanwhile, Vieira is planning to let teenager Malcolm Ebiowei go out on loan to give him game time.
The exciting wideman joined from Derby last summer and figures regularly on the bench for Palace.

Yet Ebiowei, 19, has made just three first-team appearances and a move, probably to the Championship, would help his progress.
Ebiowei scored and starred for Palace Under-23s against Arsenal last week but needs games at a good level to stay sharp.
