Leon Bailey has signed a new contract at Aston Villa, the Premier League club have announced.

The 26-year-old Jamaica winger has extended his stay, having initially moved to Villa Park from Bayer Leverkusen in 2021.

Bailey has scored seven goals in 21 appearances this season to help Unai Emery’s side mount an unexpected top-four challenge.

Villa are currently in fifth place in the Premier League and are just one point behind Tottenham, who occupy fourth spot.

Only Ollie Watkins, who has found the net eleven times, has scored more goals for Villa in the Premier League this season than Bailey.

Bailey is currently tied with Douglas Luiz on seven league goals for the campaign. In addition, Bailey has also found the net once in the Europa Conference League and scored twice during qualifying for that competition. 

Villa return to action on Saturday when they face Fulham away.
