The Express understands that Tottenham Hotspur are readying a January move for Manchester United defender Eric Bailly.
Tottenham didn’t bring in a single player during the summer– the only side not to in England’s top flight though the Ivory Coast international is among their targets for when the transfer window reopens.
The twenty-four-year-old has been used sparingly this season and was substituted just nineteen minutes into Saturday’s 3-2 win over Newcastle United – at which point the Red Devils were two goals down.
In total, Bailly has played sixty-three times since signing from Villareal in the summer of 2016, with his one and only goal in that time coming in a 4-0 win at Swansea City last August.
He was part of the squad that won both the EFL Cup and Europa League under Jose Mourinho in 2017 while internationally he won the Africa Cup of Nations with his country in 2015.
