LEON BAILEY NEWS

Heading towards Villa Bailey is expected to join Aston Villa from Bayer Leverkusen after the two clubs announced their agreement for his transfer, pending personal terms.

Impact Bailey is coming off one of the best seasons of his career with nine goals and eight assists in the Bundesliga to go with five goals and two assists in the Europa League. This set him up for a long-expected departure from Die Werkself, though it's to a club where the fit seems better than the guarantee to finish higher in the standings. As Jack Grealish is nearing his own departure, Bailey will help fill the void along with Emiliano Buendia in supporting Ollie Watkins and a strong attacking side.

May not return this season Bailey broke his toe last weekend and is in a race to be an option for the team's final two matches, according to interim manager Hannes Wolf.

Impact Bailey has been a regular the last few matches, but a broken toe won't be easy to return from in less than two weeks. He's on a nice run of form, accruing three goals and two assists in his last four starts, but if he misses the last two matches, someone like Demarai Gray, Moussa Diaby or Nadiem Amiri will likely come into the XI.
