Britain's "Mirror" broke the news, Manchester United has decided to terminate the contract with the stalwart Alec Bailly, allowing the 29-year-old Ivory Coast international free transfer, but Alec Bailly asked for 600,000 pounds (about 6 million Hong Kong dollars) "loyalty money", the club refused to pay, resulting in the failure to reach an agreement on the departure of the team.
The Ivory Coast international has been injured a lot since joining United from Villarreal in 2016, and was loaned out to Marseille last season. The Red Devils had already planned to sell him and asked for a transfer fee of only 2 million pounds, but there was still no club to take the goods, and they finally offered to terminate the contract with Eric Bailly, thus saving 4 million pounds of manpower expenses for one year.
It is reported that Eric Bailly originally agreed to terminate his contract, but asked for 600,000 pounds of "loyalty money", the club is not willing to pay, so there are variables in the termination of the contract.
