'Man Utd have paid way over the top for Bailly'

European football expert Gabriele Marcotti believes Manchester United have overpaid for defender Eric Bailly.

United are expected to pay Villarreal around £30m for the centre-back, but Marcotti says Bailly does not have enough competitive experience to justify such a price tag.

Former Liverpool defender Mark Lawrenson disagrees, and believes Bailly has a real chance of becoming a "top player".
