The England right-back, 22, has left boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer purring, with former midfielder Fletcher revealing just what the squad think of him.

Wan-Bissaka was a £50million summer signing from Crystal Palace, but he already appears to be paying that fee back in spades.
And ex-Man Utd midfielder Fletcher revealed just what he’s really like in training having spoken to some of his team-mates in recent weeks.
Fletcher claimed: “I was talking to some Manchester United players, and they were saying that no player has managed to pass Wan-Bissaka in training this season.
“It’s as if he refuses to let them pass. He has to get better technically, but he is a fantastic full-back.
“When he gets better technically, he’s going to take his game to a new level.
“He is a fantastic defensive player and contributor for Manchester United.”
After his stellar performance in the 2-1 derby win over Manchester City, Solskjaer beamed about his £50million full-back.
The Norwegian said: “Aaron is playing against [Raheem] Sterling, [Riyad] Mahrez and [Kevin] De Bruyne out there.
“And they just don’t go past him.”
Defensively, Wan-Bissaka has been at absolute rock this season, averaging 4.4 tackles per game – to go with two interceptions and 2.3 clearances per game.
His tackle success rate has also been an impressive 69 per cent.
However, at the attacking end, there are fears for Wan-Bissaka who has failed to score or register an assist all season.
The English star’s crossing success-rate is a worryingly low eight per cent.
