Former Manchester United right back Aaron Wan-Bissaka has dumped England and picked the Democratic Republic of Congo (DR Congo). The player was included in the national team for their upcoming international friendlies in June.
This call-up is the 27-year-old’s first to the senior national team, reflecting his growing influence at the club level and his connection to his Congolese heritage. Aaron Wan-Bissaka previously made a brief appearance for the DR Congo under-20 side in 2015. He demonstrated his early ties to the nation before opting to represent England at various youth levels.
His decision to join the senior DR Congo squad highlights a pivotal shift in his international career, offering a fresh chapter with the Leopards. DR Congo is set to face Mali on June 5, 2025, in what is expected to be a challenging encounter.
Three days after the game, they will take on Madagascar, providing Wan-Bissaka a chance to establish himself on the senior international stage.
