Dwight Yorke believes Aaron Wan-Bissaka is better than Noussair Mazraoui
Former Manchester United player Dwight Yorke believes Aaron Wan-Bissaka is a better player than Noussair Mazraoui and the club should have stuck with England.
United have been busy this summer and will be busy in the last few days of the window with arrivals and departures.
The Red Devils have finally agreed on a deal for midfielder Manuel Ugarte, while Scott McTominay is set to join Napoli and Raheem Sterling could join the club in a swap deal involving Jadon Sancho.
Yorke shares thoughts on Wan-Bissaka as well Mazraoui
United have sold a number of players this summer including Mason Greenwood and Wan-Bissaka with the former Crystal Palace man joining West Ham in a £15m deal, with Mazraoui arriving from Bayern Munich as his replacement.
However, Yorke feels United should have held on to Wan-Bissaka and believes he is a better player than the Morocco international.
“Noussair Mazraoui replaced Aaron Wan-Bissaka but the way he was used at United was absurd,” he told Lord Ping.
“He's very good defensively and he wasn't used to his strength. Mazraoui will offer a lot going forward if you want someone to overlap.
“But the most important thing is to defend and that's what Wan-Bissaka was best at so I would stick with him.
“I don't think Mazraoui is any better than Wan-Bissaka, who was mistreated at Manchester United.”
Mazraoui, a player Erik ten Hag knows well, has started both of United's Premier League games this season, while Wan-Bissaka made his Hammers debut in their 2-0 win against Crystal Palace on Saturday.
Wan-Bissaka made 190 appearances for the Red Devils after joining the club in 2019 and won the FA Cup and Carabao Cup during his time at United.
