Fulham make offer for Manchester United defender

Manchester United defender Eric Bailly has been the subject of an offer from Fulham, according to reports. 

According to Football Insider, the Cottagers have made an offer for the Ivorian, who has fallen out of favour at Old Trafford.

Fulham have reportedly tabled offers for four central defenders including Chelsea’s Malang Sarr and West Ham United’s Issa Diop.

Bailly, 28, has struggled for game time at United in recent seasons and played just seven games last term, including just three Premier League starts.

Bailly’s time at Old Trafford could be coming to an end

The centre-back is likely to fall even further down the pecking order now after the arrival of Lisandro Martinez from Ajax.

Bailly will now likely be behind Harry Maguire, Raphael Varane, Martinez and Victor Lindelof in Erik ten Hag’s plans.

Fulham reportedly face competition from the likes of Roma and Sevilla for the player’s signature.

The Ivory Coast international penned a new deal with United last year that keeps him at the club until the summer of 2024.
