ERIC BAILLY is set to snub a reunion with Jose Mourinho in favour of Sevilla.
SunSport understands the Manchester United defender is in talks with the LaLiga side over a move away from Old Trafford this summer.
Roma boss Mourinho – who signed the Ivory Coast centre back at United in 2016 – is also interested in bringing the player to Serie A.
AC Milan are keeping tabs on the situation as well, but it appears Bailly – whose current contract runs until 2024 – prefers Sevilla.
Bailly, 28, had initially told new United boss Erik ten Hag that he wanted to fight for a place in the starting XI, alongside Harry Maguire, Victor Lindelof and Raphael Varane.
However, United are keen to offload players after a busy transfer window and rebuild.

Bailly’s time in Manchester has been hampered by injuries.
The defender has failed to make more than 20 Premier League appearances in a season after his debut campaign in 2016/17.
