Chelsea have stepped up their interest in Bayer Leverkusen winger Leon Bailey with a view to signing the forward this summer, Metro.co.uk understands. The 20-year-old is being tracked by a number of Premier League clubs after an eye-catching season in the Bundesliga, where the Jamaica-born winger scored nine times in 30 appearances. Manchester City had been keen on Bailey with Pep Guardiola valuing the youngster’s ability to play anywhere across the attack. However, City are closing in on a deal for Leicester City star Riyad Mahrez and are unlikely to pursue a move for Bailey this summer. That has created a window of opportunity for Chelsea and Metro.co.uk understands the club’s interest in Bailey has increased dramatically in recent weeks. Leon Bailey in London
