Manchester United central defender Eric Bailly will be allowed to leave Old Trafford on a free transfer this summer.

The 29-year-old has not appeared for the club for two seasons and is currently seen as fifth choice for Erik Ten Hag’s men after Harry Maguire’s move to West Ham collapsed earlier in the week.

RMC Sport reporter Fabrice Hawkins suggests Bailly has agreed with the Red Devils to leave on a free transfer this summer with Premier League side Fulham interested in making a move. Bailly also has potential suitors in Turkey and Saudi Arabia, although the Ivorian has already rejected an offer from Super Lig club Besiktas which would have seen him have to take a huge wage cut.
