Eric Bailly
Manchester United-bound Eric Bailly has only played 40 top-flight matches... so, why is Jose Mourinho ready to spend £30m on the Villarreal defender?
* Manchester United are closing in on £30m signing of defender Eric Bailly * Ivorian defender set to become first Jose Mourinho signing at Old Trafford * The 22-year-old has only only played 40 top-flight matches in Spain * So, why is Mourinho prepared to splash so much on Bailly? If, as expected, Manchester United complete the £30million signing of Eric Bailly from Villarreal, rarely will so much money have been paid for someone who has played so few games. Sportsmail looks at the incredible rise of the 22-year-old set to become Jose Mourinho's first signing at Old Trafford. It's been meteoric? Some players don't need much time to convince watching scouts and managers that they are worth investing time and money in and that has been the story of Bailly's career. He was taken from Africa to Espanyol on the basis of one outstanding performance in a trial game. Ivory Coast made him an ever-present starter in their 2015 Africa Cup of Nations campaign after he had played just two friendlies for them. Villarreal signed him from Espanyol after he had played just five games in La Liga. And now only 35 matches later Mourinho has seen enough and wants him at Manchester United. The Ivory Coast defender has only played 40 La Liga matches for Villarreal and Espanyol When did he first come to the fore in Spain? In January of last year when Villarreal sold Gabriel Paulista to Arsenal for £11.2m and needed a replacement. They didn't put up much of a fight over losing Gabriel because they new they had found the perfect replacement in the £4.4m two-footed centre-back who can also play as a full back. And he had only played five games for Espanyol? They did not want to lose him but they only owned 50 per cent of his rights and as they did not have the money to buy him outright – they have since been taken over by Chinese investors but were struggling at the time – and they had to let him go. Did he slot straight into Gabriel's boots at El Madrigal? So much so that he is about to follow him to the Premier League. Villarreal buy young players that they know they will sell for a sizeable mark-up further down the line but even they are surprised at the prospect of losing Bailly this soon. It was tough when he turned up and had to compete with experienced pair Mateo Musacchio and Victor Ruiz but he became first choice in less than a year. The 22-year-old, who has already played for the Ivory Coast 15 times, joined Villarreal in January 2015 Did he take time to adapt at Villarreal? He was away on international duty playing in the African Cup of Nations that Ivory Coast won when he signed. He had had been a late call-up to the squad having just played two friendlies but he started all six games and scored a penalty as Ghana were beaten on spot-kicks in the final. Back at Villarreal, coach Marcelino set about polishing the rough diamond. He has been giving him extra defensive drills ever since signing him and it now falls to Mourinho to complete his education. He has always had pace and a great leap and his positioning has improved thanks to that painstaking correction by the Villarreal coach. He has no shortage of confidence – too much at times – and Mourinho will look to curb a tendency to take risks in the wrong areas of the pitch, but the raw talent is there in abundance and he is comfortable anywhere across the back four. Is he ready for the Premier League? It's the lack of experience that will be the immediate concern. He is a gifted athlete, a fierce competitor and an exemplary professional. Tactically he has needed to play catch up having had such limited top-flight experience in Europe. Quote:
He made just 21 appearances for them before then Espanyol manager Sergio Gonzalez gave him his first-team debut in January 2015 in a 1-1 draw against Villarreal, who then signed him five games later. He was on Barcelona's list of possible signings this summer and his speed of recovery and versatility would have made him perfect for Luis Enrique's defence. If United sign him instead it will be real coup. What is he like off the pitch? Shy and polite are the two words that most often come up when speaking to people at Espanyol and Villarreal. He speaks perfect Spanish despite only having been in Spain for four years and will perfect his English quickly. He is bright and intelligent and he will do as he is told by Mourinho, who, should the signing go through, will have the perfect opportunity to show he can nurture young talent. Bailly (right) is a gifted athlete but his lack of experience could be a concern for United supporters Code:

Re: Eric Bailly
Welcome
MANCHESTER UNITED SIGN ERIC BAILLY Manchester United is delighted to announce that Eric Bertrand Bailly has completed his transfer from Villarreal CF, subject to successfully obtaining a work permit. Eric joins on a four-year contract with the option to extend for a further two years. Bailly, 22, made 47 appearances for Villarreal since joining on 29 January 2015. The Ivory Coast central defender has made 15 appearances for his country and was part of the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations-winning team, having appeared in all six matches during the competition. Bailly said: "It is a dream come true to be joining Manchester United. To play football at the highest level is all I have ever wanted to do. "I want to progress to be the best that I can be and I believe working with Jose Mourinho will help me develop in the right way and at the right club. I am looking forward to meeting my new team-mates and to starting this new chapter of my life." Mourinho said: "Eric is a young central defender with great natural talent. He has progressed well to date and has the potential to become one of the best around. "We look forward to working with him to help nurture that raw talent and fulfil his potential. Eric is at the right club to continue his development." HTML Code:

Re: Eric Bailly
PROFILE : ERIC BAILLY'S ROAD TO UNITED
Eric Bailly has completed his transfer to Old Trafford from Villarreal, the Spanish club where the Ivory Coast international enjoyed a meteoric rise after making his La Liga debut in October 2014. The stage is now set for the 22-year-old defender to ascend under the guidance of new manager Jose Mourinho, adding further chapters to his increasingly remarkable story. THE BEGINNING Bailly was born in Bingerville, Ivory Coast, also home to Manchester City striker Wilfried Bony, and his quality as an aspiring footballer was spotted by Spanish side Espanyol during a youth tournament held in Burkina Faso. He was signed by the Catalan club in December 2011 and joined their youth system at 17, but it was 10 months before he received a work permit that would enable him to play. Once his papers had arrived, he became a regular in the Espanyol B team, playing under the name of Eric Bertrand, until deciding to use his mother’s surname, Bailly, instead. Having caught the eye of first-team boss Sergio Gonzalez, Eric sampled his first taste of professional football during a 2-0 La Liga win over Real Sociedad before registering his first start in a 1-1 draw with Villarreal, who quickly showed just how impressed they were by the young defender they had faced. JOINING VILLARREAL In January 2015, Bailly moved to Villarreal for a reported fee of £4.4million as a replacement for the Arsenal-bound defender Gabriel Paulista. It was claimed that Espanyol did not want to sell their rough diamond, but essentially had no other choice due to the club’s financial problems at that time. INTERNATIONAL SUCCESS Bailly’s first big transfer was completed during the 2015 African Cup of Nations in Morocco, where he made six appearances as The Elephants reached the final and drew 0-0 with Ghana. That led to a dramatic penalty shootout and Bailly bravely stepped up in the ninth round of penalties to score his spot-kick. After two more Ivorian goals, his ecstatic team-mates were crowned champions of Africa. PROGRESS AT ESTADIO EL MADRIGAL Although his start at Villarreal was slow, making 12 appearances as he competed with centre-backs Mateo Musacchio, Victor Ruiz and Daniele Bonera from January to May, he became a regular starter throughout 2015/16. This was his breakout season as he started 25 La Liga games in a team that conceded only 35 goals, as the Yellow Submarine finished fourth to qualify for the Champions League. Bailly also featured heavily in Villarreal’s Europa League campaign and made seven appearances, including one against Liverpool in the semi-final. Injury ruled him out of the decisive second leg at Anfield when Jurgen Klopp’s Merseysiders secured progress to the final. THE FUTURE Following his transfer to United, the future appears to be bright for Bailly as he bids to impress new manager Jose Mourinho. A role at centre-back looks most likely, but the Ivorian can also play at right-back and his versatility could prove to be crucial. Either way, exciting times are ahead. HTML Code:
