Injury Update

Eric Bailly injured, again!

Eric Bailly was one of the world’s best young defenders when Manchester United signed him from Villareal. The Ivorian has had a tough career at United, plagued with injuries, but this season was meant to be his season, as several pundits hoped for him to stay fit and prove himself. But in his recent press conference, Solskjaer has announced that Eric Bailly has been injured yet again.

Bailly had a good start to this season, with a couple of solid performances in the Carabao Cup. But he was awful against Tottenham, so was the rest of the United team in fairness to Bailly. But the centre-back was believed to have gained confidence and was ready to partner Maguire in defence for the rest of the season.

In his recent post-match interview, Solskjaer said that he doesn’t expect Eric Bailly to be back before the next international break. Manchester United are going through a tough run of fixtures which will see them face Chelsea, RB Leipzig, Arsenal and Everton. Luckily for Solskjaer, Axel Tuanzebe has stepped up big time and played very well against PSG last night.

Eric Bailly looks set to depart from United next summer, as this was reportedly his last chance at Old Trafford. With his injury concerns, it will be very hard for Bailly to rejuvenate his career, no matter where he plays.
