Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a move for Manchester United’s Eric Bailly.
A number of Manchester United players have been linked with exits under Jose Mourinho, and Eric Bailly is the latest to be touted for a move away.
The likes of Anthony Martial and Paul Pogba are regular linked with leaving the club, and more players will be linked with exits – whether it’s for real or just to stir the United pot.
The latest rumour is from The Mirror, reporting that defender Bailly is eyeing a move away from the Red Devils over a perceived lack of playing time.
It’s claimed that Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are keen to land Bailly, who hasn’t started a Premier League game since the 3-2 defeat at Brighton and Hove Albion last month.
The Ivorian was left out entirely against Spurs in August and has only come on as a substitute against Burnley and Watford.
A move away would be a surprise for Bailly, given that he was Mourinho’s first signing as United boss back in 2016, and United fans have taken to Twitter to offer their reaction.
Some want Mourinho to go before he sells Bailly, believing that he is the best defender at the club and should be built around alongside Pogba and Martial.
Others believe that Spurs would be a major step down for Bailly, whilst one fan wouldn’t be too bothered about him leaving given that he has suffered some injury blows during his two years at Old Trafford.
