Manchester United have reportedly offered Eric Bailly to Newcastle, despite missing out on Ajax defender Jurrien Timber.
Erik ten Hag wanted Timber to follow him to Old Trafford, but it was reported earlier this week that the 21-year-old has decided to stay in Amsterdam to guarantee himself plenty of game time, with the World Cup now just five months away.
This news does not appear to have led to United changing their plans, though, with regards to Bailly's future.
The 13-time Premier League champions are still keen to offload the Ivorian, and have presented the Magpies with the opportunity to buy him, according to The Mirror.
