Aaron Wan-Bissaka to Man Utd transfer speculation has 'turned his head' - Aidy Boothroyd
Aaron Wan-Bissaka's head is "bound to" have been turned by Manchester United's interest, according to England Under-21s boss Aidy Boothroyd.
The Crystal Palace defender appears to be closing in on a move to Old Trafford but suffered a nightmare against France on Tuesday.
The 21-year-old's injury-time own goal condemned the Young Lions to an opening Euro 2019 defeat in Italy as he failed to impress in the 2-1 loss.
Talks between United and Palace over a deal, likely to be over £50million, are reportedly ongoing and Boothroyd admitted the speculation may have affected Wan-Bissaka.
"For a young player who all he knows is Crystal Palace academy and Crystal Palace it would be daft not to say that in some way he must think about it," said Boothroyd, ahead of Friday's must-win game against Romania.

"I would not be truthful if I told you anything other than that.
"What I will say is because he doesn't say too much you don't get to find out too much. Aaron keeps things to himself.
"He is a very private guy. When that speculation is flying around it is bound to turn your head.
"But having said all of that had he not scored the own goal we probably wouldn't be having this conversation."
