Roma could move for Manchester United centre-back Eric Bailly this summer, according to a report.

Roma are reportedly keeping a close eye on Eric Bailly's situation at Manchester United and could make a move for the centre-back during this summer's transfer window.

The 27-year-old only signed a new contract with the Red Devils in April, but there remains speculation surrounding his future, with a recent report claiming that he was available for purchase this summer.

Bailly is already behind Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof in the pecking order at Old Trafford and would likely drop to fourth choice if Man United signed another centre-back ahead of next season.

According to Il Tempo, incoming Roma boss Jose Mourinho has identified Bailly as a possible acquisition during this summer's transfer window.

The report claims that the two individuals share a strong relationship following their time together at Man United, and a deal could potentially occur in the coming weeks.

Bailly, who has struggled with a number of injury problems during his time at Old Trafford, has made 106 appearances for his current side over the last five seasons.
