Born in Croydon, Greater London, Aaron Wan-Bissaka grew up in the New Addington area. He attended Good Shepherd Catholic Primary School and developed a keen interest in football from a young age. He began his footballing journey at the Junior Elite FC in Beckenham before joining the Crystal Palace academy at the age of 11. He was originally a winger, but a tactical switch during his time at Crystal Palace converted him to a full-back, a move that would define his professional career.
As a youngster, Wan-Bissaka was known to idolise Thierry Henry, and he wore the number 14 shirt in his honour. He was a committed player, though he was once on the verge of being sacked from Crystal Palace for disciplinary issues, which his father reportedly pleaded with the club to reconsider. His parents originated from the Democratic Republic of Congo, having lived previously in the Netherlands and Germany. At home, both English and French are spoken. Here's a detailed look at Aaron Wan-Bissaka Family - His father, Ambroise Wan‑Bissaka, who belongs to Congolese heritage, formerly played grassroots football, worked multiple jobs, helped keep Aaron disciplined and drove him to training. His mother, Elizabeth, was very supportive, helped take care of Aaron and Kevin.
Brother Kevin Bissaka is four years older and played local non-league football, which offered competition and support for Aaron while growing up, especially useful during lockdown training sessions.
Aaron always thanked his brother for being there for him and was always grateful for his support during his early career.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka net worth has been steadily increasing throughout his career, reflecting his status as a key player in the Premier League. He has an estimated net worth of almost £29.18 million.
