ERIC SIGNS FOR JAY Z

ERIC BAILLY has signed for music megastar Jay Z.

The Manchester United defender (below) has joined Roc Nation Sports which was formed by the American rapper (top).

Roc Nation Sports are moving into the football world having also signed up Bailly’s United team-mate Romelu Lukaku, who left longstanding agent Mino Raiola.

They have already got some of the biggest names from US basketball, baseball, American Football and boxing, including NBA star Kevin Durant.

Bayern Munich’s Germany defender Jerome Boateng is also on their books.

The deal will be officially announced next week, but it comes at an interesting time for Bailly, 24, who has lost his place in the starting line-up at Old Trafford despite putting in impressive displays for the Ivory Coast.

Tottenham are one of several clubs monitoring developments with Bailly.
