Arsenal & Tottenham 'in Pursuit' of Out of Favour Man Utd Defender Eric Bailly

Manchester United defender Eric Bailly is reportedly wanted by Premier League rivals Arsenal and Tottenham, with both north London clubs 'pursuing' the Ivorian centre-back after he has fallen out of favour and become 'unsettled' at Old Trafford.

Bailly has played just 21 minutes of Premier League action since a complete horror show in the shock defeat against Brighton back in August and a report published earlier this week claimed the £30m player will leave the club if a buyer is found.

That version of events is contested by Duncan Castles writing for the Daily Record, a journalist known for his close connections with United boss Jose Mourinho.
