E. Bailly is nearing a new deal with "Man Utd"

"Manchester United" is close to signing a new contract with center-back Eric Bailly, ESPN reports. Negotiations for a new deal with the 27-year-old defender have been ongoing for some time, but Bailly himself wanted assurances about his playing time. It seems that after a conversation with manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, there has been a breakthrough in negotiations, and the Ivory Coast international should remain in the ranks of the "Red Devils." Bailly's current contract is valid until the summer of 2022. He has been playing for "Man Utd" since 2016 and has played 100 matches during this time.
