Leon Bailey is 'on Manchester City's radar' says pundit
Some of the Premier League's top clubs will reportedly be keeping a close eye on Bayer Leverkusen's Europa League clash with Slavia Prague to watch attacker Leon Bailey.

Yet, according to the Daily Mail, Manchester United, Arsenal, Tottenham and Everton will all have scouts watching Bailey this evening.
Inter Milan and Paris Saint-Germain are also said to have people keeping tabs on the player.
Bailey has three years left on his contract and would command a hefty price for interested clubs.
Leverkusen are no strangers to selling to English clubs with Heung-min Son, Bernd Leno and Kai Havertz all being sold in recent years.

In September, Bailey's agent Craig Butler told the Jamaica Observer that the 23-year-old has ambitions beyond Leverkusen.
He said: "He deserves the opportunity to either be given the chance to lead Bayer Leverkusen to a real fight for the championship of the Bundesliga or the opportunity to move on.
“We appreciate Bayer Leverkusen and their platform as the club continued to provide for him to do what he does best.
"Each professional footballer’s goal is to move to the highest level and be the best he can be.”
Meanwhile, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has confirmed Thomas Partey will be out for the "next few matches" after suffering another thigh injury in the defeat to Tottenham on Sunday.
"He got injured in the same area, but not in exactly the same spot as before," Arteta said.
"He had an MRI yesterday, there is an injury there, he will miss the next few matches."
