That's what bookmakers Coral say, which reduced the chances of Bailey going from 2/1 to 5/4 on Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea has already been tied to a contract with winger Bailey, while United and Liverpool may be looking for new recruits in January.

Coral's Harry Aitkenhead said: "Bailey has been coveted by a number of Premier League clubs for about twelve months, but as the movement begins to appear, it seems more likely that Chelsea will be in the lead. of his signature.

"These are our favorites to be his next club and it may well be that we already see the winger at Stamford Bridge as early as next season."

The winger, 21, is one of the most fashionable properties in Europe and has been associated with a host of big clubs.

Liverpool looked well trimmed in the future, but Chelsea and United might be tempted to bolster their attacks early in the year.

Liverpool is 3/1 to sign with the young, and United is now out at 10/1 after Chelsea pass.

However, Bailey himself insists that he is happy to stay in the Bundesliga after an excellent breakthrough season in 2017-18 after his move from Genk.

"Chelsea has been interested in me for maybe 14 or 15 years," he told FourFourTwo magazine.

"But as a young player, you want to start at a normal level and not just go because of the name of the club.

"Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Liverpool – many clubs were interested.

"But the most important thing, as a professional, is to do things step by step and not rush to the top too quickly.

"Because once you've arrived, where are you going?

"I'm not really focused on my travels yet.

"I'm just talking about what's happening now rather than what might happen in the future. I continue to learn. "

Bailey scored 9 goals in 30 Bundesliga matches last season.

He also collected four more passes while Leverkusen finished 5th in the Bundesliga.

However, he was less prolific this season with one goal and no help.

Before the match of the weekend, Maurizio Sarri confessed to want to overthrow two players of the midfielder.

Asked about Danny Drinkwater and Victor Moses, the manager explained that the two stars exceeded the requirements.

He said, "The situation is that Drinkwater, for me, is suitable for a midfielder with two midfielders.

"I told him two months ago what I think.

"Moses is more appropriate to play as a winger back, rather than as a winger or a back."
