DBasia.news – AC Milan are rumored to recruit Manchester United defender, Eric Bailly. He is believed will make Il Diavolo Rosso’s defense stronger.
Bailly’s situation in Manchester United is complicated. The last time he played was in the match against Newcastle United last month. Moreover, he only played for 19 minutes.
Jose Mourinho is rumored unsatisfied with Bailly’s performance. The 24-year-old player is considered slow in closing the gap and reading the pattern.
ESPN reported The Special One asked The Red Devils management to recruit the new defender in the upcoming winter transfer market. It means the chance for Bailly to play is getting smaller.
Seeing that, Milan want to recruit Bailly. Rossoneri feel Bailly is the right player to accompany Alessio Romagnoli in the defense area. Moreover, Bailly has the capability in a one-on-one duel with his physical strength.
Currently, Bailly is still in contract until the end of next season. But, so far Man United haven’t conducted any meeting about the contract renewal.
It will be beneficial for Milan. If they are not reaching the deal, Bailly’s transfer fee will decrease from time to time.
Manchester United recruit Eric Bailly from Villareal with £34M in 2016 summer transfer market. Transfermarkt predicts Bailly’s worth around £27M.
