Report: Lyon to move for Victor Lindelof, Eric Bailly

Lyon are reportedly interested in signing Manchester United centre-backs Victor Lindelof and Eric Bailly in a huge signal of intent.

The French club are said to be after new options in the heart of defence and see the Red Devils duo as possible targets.

L'Equipe claims that Bailly is top of Lyon's transfer wishlist after falling out of favour at Old Trafford.

Bailly has not been used since a 13-minute cameo against Crystal Palace on February 27, with his absence being put down to a head injury suffered on international duty with Ivory Coast last month.

The 25-year-old's defensive teammate Lindelof is also rumoured to be on Lyon's radar, though the Red Devils are less likely to cash in on the Sweden international as he has shown promising signs under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Lyon snapped up Memphis Depay from United in 2017 and he has rediscovered his best form at the Groupama Stadium.
