Arsenal target Bailly told by United to ‘consider future’

Eric Bailly has been told by Manchester United to ‘consider his future’ if his situation at the club doesn’t improve, according to ESPN. 

With both Arsenal and Spurs supposedly interested in the 24-year-old, the Ivorian could take a chance away from Old Trafford.

Coughing up £30 million for the central defender in 2016, United would reportedly allow Bailly to leave if he so desired, after a disappointing three Premier League starts so far this season.

United made a considerable effort to sign a new centre back late in the summer transfer window, with moves for Harry Maguire of Leicester and Spurs’ Toby Alderweireld stalling.

Manager Jose Mourinho has reportedly set eyes on Milan Skriniar and Alessio Romagnoli for his new targets, with either of the Serie A stars likely to take a place in the Portuguese tactician’s starting lineup almost immediately.

Bailly seems determined to stay and fight, however – even if Unai Emery wants to offer him an easy way out of Salford.
