Bayer Leverkusen winger Leon Baily admits Chelsea, Liverpool interest

Bayer Leverkusen winger Leon Baily admits he has offers to leave this month.

Bailey has been heavily linked with a move away from the Bundesliga in recent months with Chelsea, Liverpool and Serie A side Roma all interested in his signature.

It's understood Chelsea are prioritising a move for the 20-year-old having missed out on signing Malcom, who joined Barcelona from Bordeaux.

And when asked about interest from Chelsea, Liverpool and Roma, Bailey told Kicker: “There's concrete interest.

“What I can say is that my full focus is on developing myself as a young player, and that's what I'll focus on.

“If a club wants me, my management and Bayer 04 will take care of it.

“Let's wait and see, it really is a difficult league as everyone knows to get out of."
