Manchester United centre-back Eric Bailly insists that his team will return stronger next season following a disappointing end to the 2017-18 campaign.

Manchester United centre-back Eric Bailly has insisted that his team will come back stronger next season following a disappointing end to the 2017-18 campaign.

The Red Devils managed to secure second spot in the Premier League table, but suffered a 1-0 defeat to Chelsea in the FA Cup final last weekend.

United also lost to Sevilla in the Champions League round of 16, but Bailly has said that the team will put smiles back on the faces of the supporters next season.

"We would have liked to have finished the season by winning the FA Cup," Bailly posted on Instagram. "Unfortunately, it was not to be. Nevertheless, we've wrapped up a season in which there were ups and downs.

"Now it's time to stop, to learn from this season, to rest, and to enjoy our families and friends so we can come back next season even stronger. We're eager to set new goals and to see lots of smiles in the stands at Old Trafford next year.

"Thanks for the support you have given the entire team throughout the season. And especially, thank you very much for the love you have always shown me. Let's go United! And good luck to my teammates who are playing in the World Cup!"

Bailly has recently been linked with a move away from Old Trafford after struggling for starts in the final months of the season.
