Hide AdSky Sports are reporting that Galatasaray have made a £12.9 bid for the Malian which is understood to have fallen short of United’s valuation.
AC Milan were also reported to have shown interest in the player last season.
With new manager Slavisa Jokanovic coming in this week, though not officially starting for another month, it’s not yet known what United are going to do with the player for next season. Coulibaly is due to remain in Belgium but they can call him back if they wish to do so.
