Aston Villa confirm signing of winger Bailey from Bayer Leverkusen amid Grealish exit talk

Aston Villa have confirmed the signing of Jamaica international winger Leon Bailey for a reported £30 million from Bayer Leverkusen.

The 23-year-old is the third summer signing by Villa, following Emi Buendia and Ashley Young, and has agreed a four-year contract until 2025.

Bailey's arrival comes as another Villa attacker, Jack Grealish, is consistently linked with a move away from the club, with Manchester City having made a reported £100m bid.
