Leverkusen not interested in selling Bailey

Bayer Leverkusen are not interested in selling Leon Bailey this summer, despite interest from Chelsea and Roma.

As reported by TalkSPORT, who cite reports in Italy, Leverkusen are adamant that the player will be staying put.

Bailey has been a long-term target for Chelsea, who could be in the market for a winger if either Eden Hazard or Willian leave in the not too distant future.

The Jamaican-born winger was one of the standout performers in the Bundesliga last season and is a player Chelsea have had on their radar for some time now.

Roma were also said to be interested in a deal to sign Bailey after they missed out on Malcom, who snubbed a move to Italy to join Barcelona at the last minute.

The 20-year-old is under contract until 2022 with the Bundesliga outfit and is undoubtedly going to attract more interest in the coming months or years.
