Aston Villa are one of several leading sides, including Tottenham, Man City, and Newcastle, reportedly interested in signing 16-year-old English Leeds United striker Harry Gray. Transfer insider Graeme Bailey confirmed that Villa are among the clubs he has heard are particularly interested in the player. As Gray is still an apprentice, clubs are permitted to recruit him outside of the standard transfer windows. Despite the interest from elsewhere, sources understand that Leeds are increasingly confident the striker will stay, with Bailey also telling LeedsUnitedNews that the club believes he will sign his first professional contract. According to Transfermarkt, Gray has a current market value of €500k.
