Eric Bailly and Axel Tuanzebe will reportedly be let go by Manchester United.
Erik ten Hag is planning to bring in at least one more centre-half this summer, meaning the defensive pair would be shoved even further down the pecking order. Bailly has not played for the club in 2022.
The Ivorian came back from the Africa Cup of Nations with an ankle injury and has not been offered any game time since. He amassed just seven appearances this season prior to his knock.

Bailly is considered fourth choice centre-back behind Harry Maguire, Raphael Varane and Victor Lindelof, while Tuanzebe even further back in line. After a tepid loan spell at Aston Villa in the first half of the season, the Englishman's loan spell at Napoli saw him play just 10 Serie A minutes in total.
He’s not played for United since last year’s Europa League final loss to Villarreal, having racked up 37 first team games overall. Bailly has tallied 113 matches, scoring once in that time.
Fabrizio Romano has claimed both are set to be sold by United. Bailly has two years left on his deal while Tuanzebe’s deal expires next summer. MEN Sport has previously reported Bailly is set to be sold.
Meanwhile, Portuguese outlet Correio de Manha (via Sport Witness) claims United have tabled a £90m (€105m) bid for Darwin Nunez. The sought-after forward is being targeted by Ten Hag as an attacking reinforcement for Cristiano Ronaldo.
The report claims United have proposed that around £65m will be paid up front with £17m going towards bonuses and the final £8m supporting a loan move for a player going the other way. Andreas Pereira has been touted as one player who could be included in
