Manchester United defender Eric Bailly is almost certain to leave the club this summer and Saudi League side Al Nassr are reportedly closing in on move for the defender.
Al Nassr have already completed the signing of Alex Telles from United for a fee of around £7million and are now hoping to get a deal done for Bailly.
United are open to selling Bailly as they look to raise money for more transfers.
Bailly Close To Al Nassr Move:
As reported by Saudi Sport, Manchester United defender Eric Bailly is moving closer to a move to Al Nassr.
The Saudi side are closing in on the Manchester United defender, who has been at the club since 2016. Bailly has only made 113 appearances for United since then, in a period plagued by injuries.
Al Nassr are willing to take a chance on the Ivorian defender who is just 29-years old. Bailly will be joining up with former team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo if a deal does get completed.
United are unlikely to sign a replacement for Bailly as they already have four centre-backs ahead of him in the pecking order. The Red’s would only dip into the market if Harry Maguire leaves the club.
A deal is close to being done, and Eric Bailly could be the next Saudi League signing.
