Bailey’s agent: “I always believed he would join Roma one day.” | OneFootball

Leon Bailey is a new Roma player.

The attacking winger joined Gian Piero Gasperini’s team from Aston Villa on loan with an option to buy and has chosen the number 31 shirt.

During the negotiations, his father, who is also the player’s agent, has been active on social media and recently posted a video in the capital, likely discussing the terms of his contract with the Giallorossi.

In the past few hours, Craig Butler Phoenix published a post on Instagram capturing Bailey’s first moments with the Giallorossi. It’s from a conversation between the player and his new coach during his medical.

In the caption, he commented on his son’s achievement on behalf of Phoenix Sports Management.

“Phoenix Sports Management is pleased and honored to announce the transfer of our client Leon Bailey.

My son, it has been a difficult but also beautiful road. We are now in the beautiful city of Rome, a city that exudes courage, history, and honor. Represent it at its best, as does AS Roma, with heart and intelligence.

I have always believed that one day we would get here. The strong relationships built over many years between us and Federico Massara have made it possible. We are grateful and committed to making the fans proud and happy.

We look forward to achieving great things.

A special thank you also to Monchi, Damian, Unai, and the entire Aston Villa club. Life sometimes comes full circle, and I also want to thank the fans for their support of my son. Stephon, you are a great support to Leon, and I am proud to have you as my daughter. We will get through this. Forza Roma!!!!!!!”
