Roma set their sights on landing Man Utd defender

17 February 2022 - 19:44

Roma are reportedly interested in signing Manchester United defender Eric Bailly this summer.

  • Omari Hutchinson wants to continue at Ipswich Town
  • Mikel Arteta insists 27yo star won't be leaving Arsenal

  • The Ivorian signed a new contract with the Red Devils last year, but he has continued to struggle for regular game time.

    He is currently behind Raphael Varane, Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof in the pecking order for the centre-back positions.

    It is now reported that the defender sees his future away from Old Trafford amid his lack of regular first-team football.

    Roma were interested in signing him on loan in January, but United were reluctant to entertain any offers for his services.

    The Giallorossi are planning to try again during the summer with Jose Mourinho reportedly keen on a reunion with Bailly.

    Bailly previously described the Portuguese as the best manager in the world when he was the head coach of the Red Devils.

    He continues to share a close bond, and this could boost Roma's prospects of signing him at the end of the campaign.
