OSLO, Norway -- Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer confirmed that Eric Bailly is set to miss up to the next five months after undergoing knee surgery.
The defender damaged ligaments in his left knee during the 2-1 win over Tottenham in Shanghai and is now facing a lengthy spell on the sidelines after having an operation on Tuesday morning.
Sources have told ESPN FC that United are still in talks with Leicester over centre-back Harry Maguire but they are facing a race against time to get the deal over the line before the deadline on Aug.
