Ivorian defender Bailly set to be Mourinho’s first signing

Jose Mourinho's first signing for Manchester
United looks set to be highly-rated young Ivory
Coast international defender Eric Bailly and not
veteran Swedish striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic
according to British media reports.
The 22-year-old Villarreal defender who scored
one of the penalties in the penalty shootout
which saw Ivory Coast win the 2015 Africa Cup
of Nations -- will cost United a reported 30million
pounds (38.4million euros, $43.7million).
Bailly, who moved to Spain aged just 17 when he
joined Villarreal's rivals Espanyol, impressed last
season as his side conceded just 35 goals in 38
league matches and also reached the Europa
League semi-finals.
Bailly -- who cost Villarreal just £4.4million when
he joined from Espanyol last year -- will have to
work on his discipline on the pitch as he was
booked 10 times last term and sent off once.
Ibrahimovic has been linked with a move to
United -- having left French champions Paris
Saint Germain at the end of the season just
finished -- as he enjoyed a good relationship with
Mourinho at Italian side Inter Milan.
However, the 34-year-old -- presently in training
with the Swedish squad for Euro 2016 has
toyed with questioners who have asked him if he
was joining United.
