According to The Athletic, Saudi club Al-Diriyah have explored the possibility of signing Leon Bailey. The Saudi Pro League registration window remains open until September 6. This means Villa still have time to complete a transfer despite the English deadline passing.

90min reports that as the number of potential suitors for Leon Bailey dwindles, Al Ittihad and Diriyah Club are the most likely destinations for the 29-year-old.

Leon Bailey is expected to depart from Aston Villa before the transfer window concludes, with negotiations currently taking place. These talks follow inquiries from several clubs, including Al Diriyah, Hull City, and Sevilla, all of which have asked about the terms for signing the winger.
