​Roma boss Mourinho pushing for reunion with Man Utd defender Bailly

Roma could be in line to sign Manchester United center back Eric Bailly in the summer.

The Ivory Coast international is down the pecking order at United, and would welcome a summer exit.

According to Il Romanista, former United boss Jose Mourinho is an admirer of Bailly, having signed him from Villarreal for the English club.

The 27-year-old has experienced his share of fitness issues in England, but Mourinho believes that Bailly can show his best qualities in Serie A.
