Manchester United has supposedly stalled the new contract talks with centre-back Eric Bailly because of the player having significant injury worries throughout his playing time.
Since his appearance in 2016, Bailly has developed to turn into a much-changing player for the United’s crew. Unmistakably a great defender on his day, the Ivorian is broadly viewed as one of the club’s best defenders when he is in form.
Notwithstanding regardless of his undeniable ability, exhibited by his fast speed and capacity to play in difficult circumstances on the pitch, Bailly’s greatest hindrance remains his capacity to remain fit for any extraordinary timeframe.
During his almost five-year-long spell with the club, the 26-year-old safeguard has missed an incredible 94 games through injury. Notwithstanding this, however, administrator Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as of late affirmed the club had opened talks with Bailly, the confidence they can broaden his arrangement past 2022.
Nonetheless, regardless of what at first had all the earmarks of being uplifting news for United fans, there are currently developing apprehensions so that the defender could proceed onward because of an absence of playing time. Subsequent to beginning only seven Premier League fixtures so far this season, Bailly’s first-group chances keep on being limited.
As per a new report from ESPN, in spite of the ostentatious existence with the Red Devils, Bailly has significant injuries throughout his playing time, which could be intensified should his managers bring out another centre-back in the late spring. These cases come simultaneously as The Sun reports the club and Bailly have stopped agreement talks.
With no word on when or regardless of whether talks will recommence, fans will without a doubt be trusting the two players can agree, in the near future. We all feel that Bailly is crucial for the team and he is still very young. If he is fit for most of the time then United need not search for another centre-back for years to come.
