Manchester United's summer of business kicked off last week with the signing of Daniel James from Swansea City.

However, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has pleaded with the United board to give him the resources to get the deal for Crystal Palace full-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka over the line, according to the Mirror.

Palace are expected to hold out for a fee approaching £60m, and Solskjaer is likely to encourage the board to stump up the money because he is such an admirer of the player.

He thinks that Wan-Bissaka's stock is only likely to rise even more next season, and thus the club cannot wait any longer if they wish to buy him at a relatively affordable price.

Solskjaer is also interested in Thomas Meunier of Paris Saint-Germain, but he is likely to be hugely disappointed if Wan-Bissaka is not his first-choice right-back come next season.
