​Monaco get serious about Man Utd defender Bailly

Monaco are ready to make an offer for Manchester United's Ivorian international defender Eric Bailly.

The centre-half is not wanted at the Old Trafford club, as he is fifth choice under manager Erik ten Hag.

According to L'Equipe, the 28-year-old will be the subject of a Monaco offer in the coming days.

The Ligue 1 club are hoping to secure his signature as soon as possible.

The 28-year-old wanted to fight for his place at United, but may feel he has no option but to move on for regular game time.

Bailly has been at United since arriving from Villarreal in 2016.
