Eric Bailly has welcomed Manchester United ’s pursuit of a new centre-back in the summer transfer window but has warned he could leave if he is not handed regular game time. Bailly has struggled with injuries recently, but signed a new long-term contract last month to commit his future to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side. United are prioritising the signing of a new central defender this summer, with Real Madrid’s Raphael Varane reportedly top of Solskjaer’s wishlist. If signed, the France international would surely start alongside Maguire in the first-choice pairing next season, meaning Bailly looks likely to face a fight for a place in the side.
