Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal Reportedly Set for £40M Leon Bailey Battle

Bayer Leverkusen winger Leon Bailey will reportedly be the subject of a three-way transfer tussle between Premier League giants Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal in the summer transfer window.

According to Adrian Kajumba in the Mirror, the three clubs have all watched Bailey, 20, this season. While Leverkusen are determined to hold on to their £40 million-rated star in the current transfer window, they are prepared for summer advances from the Premier League trio.

Jamaican Bailey is enjoying a breakout season in the Bundesliga.

He joined Bayer from Belgian outfit Genk last January but only played 133 minutes in the Bundesliga in 2016-17, scoring no goals and providing no assists.
