Given last year's spending binge, Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag is anticipated to have a small budget to work with during the summer transfer window.
The Dutchman has been open about his dissatisfaction with the club's failure to support him in January, and he wants to prevent a repeat of those events in June.
The futures of many first-team stars are currently in doubt, and the club will need to sell successfully in order to further supplement the transfer budget.
According to a report, Marcel Sabitzer and Wout Weghorst, who were signed on loan, are not likely to be offered long-term contracts, while Scott McTominay is likely to be offloaded.
The defensive unit is poised to undergo significant change, with academy products Brandon Williams and Axel Tuanzebe possibly being let go while club captain Harry Maguire's future is uncertain.
Eric Bailly, who is now on loan at Olympique Marseille, is not anticipated to stay in France as the club is unlikely to exercise the buy option in his loan agreement, according to Fichajes.
"Valencia is already thinking about the sports planning that they will have to carry out this coming summer, having in mind a series of signings with the idea to improve practically all the lines of the field," reports claimed.
“Something that leads the Valencian sports management to think about new additions for 2023/2024, choosing the Ivorian player from Manchester United, Eric Bailly, for the defensive zone."
“The operation is very simple for the interests of the Ché team, since the English team would not put too many financial problems to let the 29-year-old footballer out.”
Since the 29-year-old is not a part of Ten Hag's plans, United is eager to offload him this summer, and the Red Devils may be willing to lower their asking price.
According to Transfermarkt, Bailly is valued at €8 million and has a contract with United that expires in 2024.
Acquired for a staggering €38 million from Villareal while Jose Mourinho was the manager.
Due to the African star's bad injury and disciplinary records as well as overall lack of form, Marseille did not exercise their option to purchase the player permanently after a specific number of games.
