Aston Villa's Leon Bailey Subject to Interest From Two Saudi Sides

Leon Bailey Looks Set to Make the Switch to Saudi Arabia Following Two Sides Interest

Rumours are currently circulating that Jamaican international and fringe Aston Villa winger, Leon Bailey, is subject to interest from Saudi Arabian sides, Al-Ittihad and Diriyah Club.

TEAMtalk have said that the winger, who has been on the fringes of the Aston Villa squad for quite a while now looks set to finally get the move away that both he and the club have been after for months.

The Jamaican winger spent the first 6 months of last season on loan with Italian giants AS Roma but the move never really stuck which has resulted in him being back on the fringes of the Villa squad.

Earlier this summer a move to newly promoted Premier League side Hull City fell through so hopes on both sides will be that one of these Saudi moves will come off and he can get back on the pitch.
