Jamaican international Leon Bailey is set to join AS Roma on a season-long loan. Bailey, formerly of Bayer Leverkusen, wasn’t in the match-day squad to face Newcastle United on the opening day of the season. 

This loan deal does come with a £19 million option to buy for the Italian giants. Looking at this deal, it’s a good deal for the player, but I don’t think so much for the club. 

New Roma manager Gianpiero Gasperini has made it his career’s work to polish rough diamonds on the football pitch and help them become diamonds that they truly can be. 

Luis Muriel at Atalanta, under his management, proves my point.

Villa’s rationale is that they have Morgan Rodgers and Sam Illing-Junior, so they should be okay. However, signing Marcus Rashford and Marco Ascensio on loan, only to see both leave at the end of last season, leaves them thin on the ground. 

Jacob Ramsey being sold as well suggests this is a bleak season for Villa. Players like Emi Bunedia could be given a career lifeline at Villa because of this latest development. 

Reports suggest that Aston Villa want to sign Nicholas Jackson, a potentially solid signing. The 24-year-old former Villareal man will provide competition to both Ollie Watkins and Evan Guessand, respectively.
