Roma makes loan offer for Leon Bailey–reports

KINGSTON, Jamaica –AS Roma has reportedly made a €4 million loan offer for Jamaican international Leon Bailey, with an option to buy for an additional €4 million, according to Football Italia.

Bailey’s agent, Craig Butler, is said to be in Italy negotiating terms with Roma as discussions are underway surrounding Bailey’s move.

The 28-year-old Aston Villa forward signed a new contract with the Premier League club in February 2024, keeping him at Villa Park until 2027. However, he is reportedly among several players made available for transfer by the Midlands side.
