Eric Bailly in Marseille, why it is possible… – Sport.fr

Thoroughly on Eric Bailly, Olympique de Marseille would be in pole position to recover the Ivorian international which Manchester United is seeking to get rid of.

At the foot of the wall, forced to work miracles with a limited budget, Pablo Longoria was particularly active in this summer transfer window of many arrivals. But if Chancel Mbemba, Samuel Gigot, Isaak Touré, Alexis Sanchez, Ruben Blanco, Luis Suarez, Jordan Veretout, Nuno Tavares and Jonathan Clauss have already been recruited, Olympique de Marseille does not intend to stop there and will seek to secure the services of a last central defender. Committed to the Eric Bailly case, the Spaniard, president of OM, would be right to believe it.

According to the combined information of the DailyMail and of Manchester Evening News, the Reds Devils would have ticked seven names off the departure list this summer. A list on which Eric Bailly would appear while Erik Ten Hag would only count on Raphaël Varane, Harry Maguire and Lisandro Martinez. A boost for OM who could take advantage of their situation to snatch it according to their own demands at the very end of the transfer window. Better still, the Marseillais would be in pole position and would be ahead of fierce competition made up of West Ham, Sevilla FC, Fulham, AS Roma, AC Milan and AS Monaco. An advantage gained on the operation itself which could end with a definitive transfer while the competition is demanding, in the majority, a loan with an option to buy.
