Leon Bailey on the verge of leaving Aston Villa
Jamaican winger Leon Bailey is nearing an exit from Aston Villa during the current summer transfer window, as reports indicate he will not travel with the team to Indonesia for the pre-season preparations for the new season, amid speculation surrounding his future.
According to reports, Eric Bailly will stay in England over the coming days to hold talks regarding his next destination, while Aston Villa continues to assess the offers made for the player, who is no longer among the key options for the coaching staff as they prepare for the new season.
The Jamaican international is attracting interest from a number of clubs, with sources indicating that the player prefers to remain in the English league if the right opportunity arises, despite interest from clubs outside England as well. So far, no final agreement has been reached with any club, but negotiations are still ongoing.
Aston Villa is scheduled to head to Indonesia for their pre-season camp and to participate in friendly matches in preparation for the new season. Meanwhile, Bailey is awaiting clarity on his future before the transfer window closes, with expectations that his destination will become clear in the coming days.
