Fulham have reportedly entered the race to sign Manchester United defender Eric Bailly.
The Ivorian played under 500 minutes of first-team football last season, and he is expected to leave the club this summer.
Marseille and Lyon have been linked with him in recent weeks, but Sky Sports report that Fulham are also interested.
The Cottagers want to land him on loan with an option to buy, but it is unclear whether United will consider the offer.
The Red Devils prefer to sell him permanently, but would be open to a loan deal with an obligation to buy next summer.
Bailly was the fifth-choice centre-back last season behind Harry Maguire, Raphael Varane, Victor Lindelof and Phil Jones.
United are currently in the process of signing another central defender in Lisandro Martinez, who will most likely start.
Hence, we can expect at least two centre-backs leaving. Alongside Bailly, Jones could be tempted to leave in the quest for game time.
