Hey Ed's/ Reds

A few sites reporting Liverpool interest in Leon Bailey a 23 year old Jamaican from Genk. The report I read mentions a loan back for the rest of the season would be likely as he had been considered a target the summer and not ready for the first team just yet. but due to interest from a couple of others this window (Bayern Lever and Roma) Liverpool would be prepared to bid 20m this window.

Firstly is there any interest from us?

Secondly does anyone know much about him can't say I do at all so any opinions welcome.

Thanks

{Ed002's Note - Genk's Leon Bailey is continuing to attract the attention of a number of sides, particularly those from England who would like a deal before the opportunity for him become home grown disappear. He has previously opted to turn down Chelsea for Genk where he knew opportunities would be better. Bayer Leverkusen, Lille, Newcastle, Ajax, Roma, Crystal Palace, Manchester United and Napoli have all watched him recently and Napoli have had a couple of discussions with Genk with one of his representatives available to discuss the views of the player. Efforts are being made by a sports agency to ease out the representatives he has now and this has irked his father who plays an important part of the decision making process and is concerned the player could slip in to obscurity if he moves too early. Folks have asked about Everton and Liverpool interest but there seems to be nothing of note. Right now he is not ready for the EPL, so a loan would be likely if he were to move to England but I don't see any chance of a January move - perhaps one to ask about again in the summer.}

Seen him play live once against my hometown club in the europa league this season, he's direct, extremely quick and his footwork is mesmerising. His end product is lacking but at only 19 this can easily be improved. Also his passing is underrated, he's quite a technical player which can easily be overshadowed due to his obvious physical attributes.
