Central Defender Eric Bai can soon become a player of Real Madrid. Since the beginning of July, the 30-year-old Ivarian has been in the status of a free agent after completing a contract with Vilmarreal.

The football player had suggestions from Saudi Arabia, but decided to continue his career in the Spanish Championship. For Bai, it will be another experience in Laiga after speeches for Espanyol and Vilmarreal.

During his career, the defender also played Manchester United, Marseille and Besiktash. As a part of the Cot-D’Ivar national team, he spent 49 matches and scored two goals.

Real Oviedo, who returned to the elite of Spanish football this season, started with the defeat of Vilmarreal (0: 2).
