Leon Bailey has joined his Aston Villa teammates as they prepare for their pre-season tour. The club has already made five early signings. Coach Unai Emery wants his new players to get acquainted with each other before the season begins.
Bailey was seen smiling with his new teammates in the training ground. The Reggae Boy star will be hoping to have another prolific season in the premier league. He recorded 10 goals and 9 assists in the league. This was a big improvement on the two previous seasons in which he was troubled by numerous injuries.
On Wednesday, the team is expected to launch their pre-season campaign with a match against Walsall. They will then face FC Spartak Trnava, Columbus Crew, RB Leipzig, Club América, Athletic Club and Borrusia Dortmund.
This will be an enjoyable season for Bailey because he will be playing in the prestigious Champions League competition. He has played in this competition before during his time as a Bayer Leverkusen player. It’s every footballers dream to play in this competition because it is regarded as the peak of club football.
Coach Unai Emery and his players are the first Villa squad to participate in a European Cup in the last 40 years.
Jamaican fans will be hoping that Bailey can maintain his goal-scoring form in the upcoming season. However, he will have to resolve his issues with the Jamaica Football Federation before he can be seen in Jamaican colors again.
