Manchester United's summer signing Aaron Wan-Bissaka has wasted no time in making an impression with the team, producing a superb recovery tackle on Juan Mata in his first training session.

Wan-Bissaka, who joined Manchester United in a £50 million deal from Crystal Palace, has already shown why the Red Devils were willing to spend big on the talented right-back.

According to a video shared by Manchester United on social media, Wan-Bissaka launched a sublime recovery tackle on Mata during the team's pre-season training session in Australia.

The tackle, which has earned Wan-Bissaka the nickname 'The Spider', is a testament to his impressive range and length, as he explained when he first joined Manchester United.

Wan-Bissaka had a superb 2018-19 campaign at Crystal Palace, earning widespread praise for his performances at the back.

He has since joined Manchester United, where he will look to continue his impressive form and help the team achieve success in the upcoming season.

Wan-Bissaka's impressive start to life at Manchester United is a welcome boost for the team, who are looking to build on their recent successes.

As reported by Tuko.co.ke earlier, Ander Herrera's departure from Manchester United was due to failed contract negotiations, which led to his free transfer to Paris Saint Germain.
