Eric Bailly's future with Manchester United, who will look to sign a new centre-back this summer, is reportedly 'under threat'.

Eric Bailly's future with Manchester United is reportedly 'under threat' as the Red Devils prepare to bring a new centre-back to the club in this summer's transfer window.

Bailly impressed during his first season at Old Trafford following a 2016 move from Villarreal, but injuries harmed his 2017-18 campaign and he has struggled for regular action this term.

The 24-year-old has only made 10 Premier League appearances this season, although he did start Wednesday's 2-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League.

According to The Independent, Bailly 'splits opinion' among United's staff, with some feeling that the Ivory Coast international lacks what is required to be a success at the top level.

Inter Milan's Milan Skriniar and Napoli's Kalidou Koulibaly are viewed as the two leading candidates to improve United's defence in this summer's transfer window.
