Report: Chelsea are interested in ‘fantastic’ Aston Villa player

The report notes 🤡that Bailey is good friends with Raheem Sterling. Like Bailey, Sterling was, of course, born in Kingston, Jamaica. So linking up with Sterling may perhaps appeal to the Aston Villa star.

that the Villans are under no pressure to sell Bailey to Chelsea. They paid £25 million for the 25-year-old. And thܫey are ready to back Unai Emery in the market.

Villa fans may be a little divided over the prospect of losing Bailey. You would imagine that the club would have no interest in letting him ཧleave unless they are presented with the chance to make♛ a big profit.

He has taken a step forward this seas🧔on. And he has scored twice in their last four Premier League games. However, it is probably also fair to say tha🎃t Villa supporters are still yet to see the very best of Bailey since his switch.

He is a ‘fantastic‘ player with a frightening amount of pace. If everything clicks, he could be an unbelievable asset for Villa as they look to permanently elevate themselves up the Premier League t༒able.

Having said that, some Villa fans will feelౠ that it is too good a𓆏n opportunity to turn down should Chelsea make a huge offer in one of the coming windows.
