With Issa Diop set to leave the club, West Ham United are reportedly considering a move for Manchester United defender Eric Bailly.

West Ham United are reportedly interested in signing Eric Bailly from Manchester United this summer.

The defender is behind the likes of Harry Maguire, Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane in the pecking order at Old Trafford, and as a result, he is expected to leave in the current transfer window.

Bailly has been linked with a reunion with former United boss Jose Mourinho at Roma, while Monaco are also targeting the 28-year-old.

According to The Sun, West Ham are set to enter the race for Bailly, with the Hammers looking to add a centre-back before the transfer window closes.

With Issa Diop closing in on a move to Fulham, David Moyes is turning his attention to finding a replacement for the Frenchman.

The Hammers are considering Bailly as an option, while they are also looking at Paris Saint-Germain defender Thilo Kehrer, who is out of favour at the French champions.

West Ham are hoping to add to their defensive ranks before Sunday's Premier League meeting with Nottingham Forest.
