Aston Villa have plan for in-form winger Leon Bailey's future
Villa are expected to enter talks with Leon Bailey over a new contract.
The Jamaica international is enjoying comfortably his best season since arriving in a £25million deal from Bayer Leverkusen in 2021 and has played a key role in Villa’s success both in the Premier League and Europe.
Bailey has scored nine goals in 26 appearances in all competitions, including the winner in last month’s stunning 1-0 victory against Manchester City.
The 26-year-old’s current deal expires at the end of next season and Villa are keen for him to join Ezri Konsa and Ollie Watkins in committing his long-term future to the club.
Unai Emery’s team return to action when they visit Middlesbrough in the FA Cup third round, hunting their first win in the competition since 2016.
