Former Manchester United star Eric Bailly was hauled off by his new team due to an "inappropriate move" during a match. <\/p>\n
Besiktas interim coach Burak Yilmaz has revealed that he substituted Bailly at half-time in Sunday's league defeat to Antalyaspor because of the defender's behaviour on the field. Bailly, who moved from United to Besiktas in September, is having a tough time in Turkey, with the team trailing Istanbul rivals, Galatasaray, by 12 points while the coach who signed him, Senol Gunes, left the club last month.<\/p>\n
Yilmaz decided to hook Bailly after the 29-year-old was caught on camera having a heated exchange with team-mate Tayfur Bingol. After the game, Yilmaz told t24: "There was a problem with Eric Bailly during the half-time. That's why I took him off. There is no injury situation. I took him out of the game due to an inappropriate move."<\/p>\n

Bailly, who was Jose Mourinho's first signing as boss for United, made 113 appearances over six injury-plagued seasons. The Ivorian defender moved from Spanish club Villarreal to Old Trafford for a hefty \u00a330million.<\/p>\n
Despite a promising first season where he helped the Red Devils bag the Community Shield, Carabao Cup and Europa League, injuries threw a spanner in the works for Bailly's career at Old Trafford. Consistent form and playing time became a struggle due to a series of issues starting in late 2017, including a severe ankle injury that sidelined him for four months.<\/p>\n

After failing to impress Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Ralf Rangnick following Mourinho's mid-season sacking, Bailly decided it was time to move on in 2022. The defender joined Marseille on a season-long loan before permanently leaving United this summer. <\/p>\n
Reflecting on his time in England, Bailly told The Times: "I was Mourinho's first signing and I also had good moments where titles were won. I played important games and in some, I was chosen as the best player. I think when I was given the opportunity I rose to the occasion. I just lacked consistency, because I think I deserved more minutes."<\/p>\n
