Sky Sports: Eric Bailly passes Manchester United medical

Manchester United are closing in on their first signing of the summer, and it’s not Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Sky Sports News have made a bold statement and claimed that Eric Bailly has indeed passed his Manchester United medical.

Jose Mourinho has won the race to bring in Eric Bailly, despite major interest from Manchester City and FC Barcelona – which shows just how highly-rated the young centre-back is.

Sky Sports News reckon that the fee is around the £30million mark for the 22-year-old Ivorian, which to be honest, isn’t all that bad in the modern day.

The fact that United are clearly trying to get as much of their business done early is great to see. It means that Jose Mourinho has already identified several targets that he wants to bring in, and the sooner they are completed, the better it’ll be for all involved.

Hopefully, we aren’t too far away from an official announcement on this one, which will be a great way to start the summer.
