My dream is to play in for big teams like Chelsea, Chelsea is my dream club,-Aston Villa Star with 13 goals this season Has confirmed he will be joining Chelsea this Summer
Leon Bailey says he would find it hard to say no to a move to Arsenal or Chelsea, even though he is “happy and comfortable” at Aston Villa.
The winger, who is 26 years old, has had his best season at Villa Park so far, scoring 12 goals and setting up 11 others in 40 games across all competitions.
His play has helped Unai Emery’s team surprise everyone by challenging for a spot in the top four and make it to the last eight of the Europa Conference League. In the quarterfinals, Villa will play French team Lille.
Bailey is happy in Birmingham and “really focused” on playing for Aston Villa, but he knows that the chance to join one of the “big six” clubs would be too good to pass up.
The Jamaican player said on the Let’s Be Honest show, “You have big teams in England. They call themselves the big six.” “The Chelsea’s and Arsenal’s.”
“To play in the Premier League has always been my dream, and now I am.” Going to a huge team sounds like a great idea to me. It’s pretty big for Jamaica, do you know how big that is for the country? Even more so because of who I am.
“That’s what I’ve been thinking about whenever I’ve been abroad—that it would shine more light.” It’s so I can use my position to bring attention to the country and its young talent. It’s hard for people from Jamaica to even think about going to Europe.

‘I’m not sure how to answer that, but I’ll see what happens. I love sports, and I’m putting all of my attention on Aston Villa. This is one of the best seasons of my career.
“In football, you never know what will happen, but I’m happy and at ease where I am.” I only pay attention to one thing at a time.
Even though Chelsea is one of the traditional “Big Six,” they have fallen a long way lately and are now only 11th in the Premier League.
The Blues have the same number of points as the team at the top of the table, Arsenal, and the team at the bottom, Sheffield United.
The Gunners are in first place with the most goals scored, but they will have to beat Liverpool and Manchester City in the last few games to win their first title in 20 years.
Meanwhile, Aston Villa is still in fourth place even though they only earned one point in their last two games before the break. They try again to get into the Champions League on March 30 when they play Wolves, a tough team.
