Left out entirely of the match squad to face Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League, Eric Bailly appears to be on his way out of Manchester United.
Despite some decent performances in pre-season, the player will find himself struggling to find a starting spot at Old Trafford, with the likes of Harry Maguire, Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane all ahead of him in the pecking order.
Add Victor Lindelof to that list, and a move elsewhere appears best for all parties at this point.
The Ivory Coast international has a few suitors, luckily for him, among which can be found AS Monaco.
L’Equipe on Tuesday have an article on the matter, explaining that following their success in luring Malang Sarr on loan from Chelsea, the principality side want Eric Bailly from Manchester United.
It’s said the defender is their ‘priority’, and with the Red Devils ‘thinking about parting ways with him’, there’s a deal to be done.
If they are to get rid of Bailly, they want to do so for good, and a key matter in all this could be whether or not the Ligue 1 side qualify for the Champions League proper in the coming days, as they face PSV Eindhoven in the qualifiers on Tuesday night following a disappointing 1-1 draw at home.
