Eyebrows were raised when Manchester United completed a whopping £50m move for 21-year-old Crystal Palace fullback Aaron Wan-Bissaka before the end of summer window as football fans believed the price was too high.
However, the England international wasted no time before settling down at Old Trafford as he continues to put in incredible performance during matches.
His consistent display for the Red Devils have attracted much praise from pundits and the club’s supporters around the world.
Wan-Bissaka’s teammate Juan Mata is the latest person to shower praise on the youngster. The Spanish star is impressed with what he has seen from the fullback this far.

According to the former Chelsea midfielder, the 21-year-old is a great tackler because his long legs help him win more tackles.
He further revealed that the Englishman is the best player of all time as he hasn’t seen any player like him.
“He’s very, very good in defensive duties, very good in tackling. I’ve never seen any player like him, he’s unbelievable. Even in training, you think you’re past him and then he comes and takes the ball straight. He has very long legs! I can only see him improving.”
Solskjaer is expected to name the young man in his starting lineup against Arsenal at Old Trafford and he will hope to see him win many tackles against Nicholas Pepe or in-form Bukayo Saka.
