Manchester United 'willing to sell Eric Bailly to Arsenal for £30m'

United 'willing to sell Bailly to Arsenal'

Manchester United are reportedly prepared to let Arsenal sign Eric Bailly for £30m during the summer transfer window.

Bailly is reaching the end of his third campaign at Old Trafford, but the Ivory Coast international has spent much of this season out of the starting lineup.

The centre-back was handed a start against Chelsea last month, but the 25-year-old suffered a knee injury which will keep him sidelined for at least a couple of months.

However, Arsenal continue to hold an interest in signing Bailly, and Metro claims that Unai Emery could be allowed to add the former Villarreal man to his squad for £30m.

That is the same fee that United paid for Bailly in 2016, although Arsenal may have to sell before they can commit to signing the player for that figure.
