Manchester United make £30million offer for Villarreal defender Eric Bailly

Manchester United have made a £30million move for Villarreal's highly-rated centre-back Eric Bailly. 

Talks are ongoing over a deal that is expected to be around £18million up front with £12m in bonus payments and the clubs hope to reach an agreement quickly for the tough but skilful defender who joined from Espanyol in 2014 for £4million.
