Rise Of Andy Robertson

There were times when he was not playing much games U14s and U15s, he said ‘football just felt long for me, obviously I liked it but the hard work wasn’t there, I think I had a talk with Dad, he gave me that talk, that talk was so long’. His perspective changed after that talk with his Dad, he started to prepare himself to the phenomenal future.

WAN-BISSAKA RISE TO STARDOM

His work rate began to improve, he never give up on winning the ball or making a run, it comes from having more of the hunger seeing his hard work.

Wan-Bissaka didn’t even know that Manchester United was interested after a phenomenal season with Crystal Palace, he was going up one day, just got a call that it has been accepted and he is going to a medical, he was so excited.

On 29 June 2019, Wan-Bissaka signed a five-year contract with Manchester United. Crystal Palace would receive an initial fee of £45million, with another £5million due in potential bonuses.

Upon his signing for Manchester United Wan-Bissaka became the sixth most expensive defender of all time and the most expensive English player who was uncapped by National side at the time of transfer.

On 11 August 2019, Wan-Bissaka received his first call-up to the senior England team ahead of UEFA Euro 2020 qualifiers against Kosovo and Bulgaria, but was forced to withdraw from the squad due to back injury.

Ever since his signing for Manchester United, every minutes he has played, has justified his commitment, he keeps the development curve that got Manchester United interested in him.

He never stops, the motivation keep driving him, knowing that hard work and dedication will eventually pay off. He is a big contender to the position of right-back in English national side amid Euro 2020 tournament despite Trippier, Trent and Walker being favoured.
