Arsenal interested in Man United’s top defender? Ole Gunnar clears the air

After reports emerged of Arsenal being interested in Eric Bailly, Manchester United caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has admitted that he isn’t surprised by the rumors.

Bailly has endured a tough season at Manchester United with his game time limited after the resurgence of Victor Lindelof.

There were reports of Bailly having a fall out with Jose Mourinho who named him on the bench on a number of occasions. Bailly was handed a red card in the 4-1 win over Bournemouth and was handed a three-game suspension.

Speaking at a press conference ahead of the Arsenal FA Cup clash, Solskjaer was asked about the rumors linking Bailly with a move to Arsenal, “I’m not surprised if they do, to put it that way but that’s just one of those things there’s always speculation, it’s not a big surprise.”
