Fulham (England) wants to sign Eric Bailly (29-Manchester United).

“Fulham are in talks to sign Manchester United (England) defender Eric Bailly,” the English outlet Daily Mail reported on April 19.

The defender was sent on loan to Marseille in France last season to get some game time, but returned to United after failing to make an impact.

Still, there was no place for Bai in Van Gaal’s team. Saudi Pro League side Al Nasr, where Cristiano Ronaldo, 38, plays, were approached for his signature, but no concrete offer or negotiations progressed.

That’s when Fulham reached out to Bye. Last season, Fulham finished an impressive 10th in the English Premier League (EPL) under Marco Silva. After adding Raul Jimenez (32) and Adama Traore (27) this summer, Fulham are looking to bolster their defense.

Bailly currently has one year left on his contract at United. He earns a weekly wage of around £80,000 ($136 million) and United are unlikely to demand a large transfer fee for his services.

United have been linked with a number of transfers in the defense in recent days. Former captain Harry Maguire, 30, was linked with West Ham (England), but the 메이저토토사이트 move ultimately fell through. Also, Jonny Evans (35), who joined the team on a short-term pre-season deal, is in talks to extend his contract at the behest of Van Gaal.

It’s a negative situation for Bai. If he wants to stay in the Premier League and continue his career, he needs to take the hand that Fulham has extended to him.
