Hull make late move for Genk star Leon Bailey

Hull City have made a late move for Genk star Leon Bailey.

The Daily Mail says Hull want to sign Bailey in a deal worth £10.3million.

The youngster is one of the hottest properties in European football with Liverpool, Chelsea and Everton all keen.

But the Tigers have now entered the race for the talented winger and are prepared to beat their top-flight rivals to the punch by completing a deal this month.

It is understood Hull have put together a package in an effort to land Bailey before next week's deadline.

It remains to be seen whether the deal is enough for Genk to part with the 19-year-old - who is valued at £20m.
