Ajax had an interest in Leon Bailey, but a transfer cannot proceed. The player has already appeared for AS Roma in Serie A and for Aston Villa in the Premier League this season. FIFA regulations state that a player can play for only two different clubs in a single season. An exception for competitions played at different times of the year is not applicable to Ajax.

Voetbalnieuws.be reports that Ajax is interested in Leon Bailey for their wing position and adds that rumours about Club Brugge and Anderlecht are false.

According to De Telegraaf, Ajax is interested in Leon Bailey as a replacement for Raúl Moro and sees Bailey as a potential addition after he returned to Aston Villa from his loan at AS Roma.

Ajax is exploring the possibility of signing winger Leon Bailey as a replacement for the departing Raul Moro. Currently on loan at AS Roma from Aston Villa, Bailey has made seven appearances in Serie A this season with no goals or assists. Other clubs, including Club Brugge and Beşiktaş, have also been linked with the Jamaican international, whose last permanent transfer was for a reported fee of €32 million.
