With his eight goals and eight assists this season already setting his best-ever pace in terms of goal contributions in England, his performances at Villa Park could attract plenty of transfer interest.

Bailey was speaking on the Let’s Be Honest podcast [20 March] as he confessed: “You have big teams in England, they call themselves the big six. The Arsenals and the Chelseas.

“It has always been my dream to play in the Premier League and I am right now. Who wouldn’t want to go to a massive team? Especially coming out of Jamaica, do you know how big that is for the country? Especially being who I am as well.

Aside from his eight goals and eight assists this season, it has been Bailey’s consistent performances game by game which have earned him plaudits from many in the game.

Even in the disappointing 1-1 draw with West Ham at the London Stadium, Bailey caught the eye. With three key passes, six crosses and three shots, his creative ability and determination to provide chances for his teammates was made clear. [Sofascore]
