Kolo Toure thinks Manchester United star Eric Bailly is on his way to becoming one of the best defenders in the world.

Former Ivory Coast international Kolo Toure believes compatriot Eric Bailly could develop into one of the best defenders in the world at Manchester United.

The 22-year-old has impressed at Old Trafford since joining United from Villarreal ahead of the 2016-17 campaign and Toure has little doubt he will continue to get better under the tutelage of Jose Mourinho.

"He can be a big, big player for United. He can be the future for United," Toure told United Review.
