Aston Villa have completed the signing of West Ham defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka on a season-long loan deal.
The deal for the DR Congo right-back includes a “conditional obligation to buy”.
The exact terms are not known, with the Hammers having previously asked interested clubs to pay a £25m fee.
The 28-year-old missed Championship club West Ham’s first two matches of the season during negotiations for a return to the Premier League.
Wan-Bissaka joined West Ham United on a seven‑year contract from Manchester United in 2024. He has made 65 appearances across his two seasons at the club, including 25 last season when the Hammers were relegated to the Championship.
He previously played 190 times for Manchester United, winning the League Cup in 2023 and the FA Cup in 2024.
More recently, Wan‑Bissaka started all four of DR Congo’s matches at the 2026 World Cup, helping them progress to the round of 32.
The new signing may feature in Villa’s first game of the Premier League at Brighton on Sunday (14:00 BST) and will also compete in the Champions League after the Villans finished fourth and won the Europa League under Unai Emery last season.
