Recently inquired about by a bunch of Italian clubs, notably AC Milan, AS Roma, Napoli, and Fiorentina, Jamaican international winger Leon Bailey, hailing from Bayer Leverkusen ranks since 2016/17 second half, is growing into a major target for both Aston Villa, looking for a Jack Grealish replacement, and Everton. Besides, Borussia Dortmund are planning a run at him as well, as long as they end up handing resident star winger himself Jadon Sancho out.

Purchased by German club on a 13.5 million euros transfer fee, from Belgian side Genk, back in late January 2017, Bailey managed to carve a prominent position in the team right from the start, and is now worth slightly less than thrice the aforementioned sum. Turning 24 on August 9, Slovakian side Trencin alumni capped 156 times overall for "The Aspirins" in official games, scoring 39 goals therein.
