Premier League 19/20: Top 5 young defenders to look forward to this season

#1 Aaron Wan-Bissaka

Wan-Bissaka is already impressing for Manchester United.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka has been the talk of the town since his recent €55 million move to Manchester United from Crystal Palace. The transfer makes him the most expensive uncapped defender of all time, which partly goes to show just how much potential he has.

Growing up as a footballer in Crystal Palace's academy, the 21-year-old became a fan favorite even before cementing his place in the first team. Last season, however, he captivated everyone with his performances, prompting a big-money bid from United - an offer Palace simply could not refuse.

The youngster played 35 Premier League games for Palace, contributing to nearly four tackles and clearances per game. He also made attacking contributions, putting in nearly two dribbles per game, and earning three assists in the competition.

Wan-Bissaka, now a Manchester United player, would need to work on his passing and contributions in the final third. With Diogo Dalot and Ashley Young as the only competition for his right-back position, it is likely that Solskjaer will keep Wan-Bissaka in the starting lineup more often than not.

He will have an opportunity to show United fans why Palace supporters were excited about him. After his impressive friendly debut in United colors, he is the most exciting prospect of this season in defence.
