Fulham manager Marco Silva is in search of a new defender and has expressed interest in Manchester United’s Eric Bailly.
While Bailly is not their first choice for the position, Fulham sees him as a potential alternative to their priority target, Morato.
Bailly, who has struggled with injuries in recent seasons, may be available for a reduced valuation.
Fulham has already signed Calvin Bassey and is looking to add further depth to their backline.
The club remains keen on Morato but may turn to Bailly if they are unable to secure a deal for their preferred option.
Bailly’s contract with Manchester United expires in 2024, but the club has the option to extend it.
Fulham may make a move for Bailly once the situation with Morato becomes clearer.
