Liverpool transfer alert: Reds considering £20m bid for Manchester United target
LIVERPOOL are among the clubs considering a bid for Genk winger Leon Bailey, according to reports.
Bailey has attracted interested from some Europe's top clubs including Liverpool with his performances for Genk this season.
The 19-year-old was expected to leave the Belgian club this summer but, according to the Daily Mail, a bid could be made this month with Bayer Leverkusen and Roma upping their interest.
Chelsea, Everton and Bournemouth are also reportedly keeping an eye on Bailey's situation at Genk.

The report claims Genk are hoping to hang on to the talented teenager until the end of the season but are willing to listen to offers if they meet their valuation of £20million.
Bailey has impressed on the European stage ever since making his debut for Genk in 2015, scoring 11 in 18 Europa League matches.
The Jamaican U23 international previously spoke of his ambition to play in the Premier League but insisted he will move from Genk if he is guaranteed minutes.

Who could Jurgen Klopp sign during the January transfer window?
"I've always dreamt of the Premier League," Bailey told Belgian newspaper Het Laatste Nieuws.
"But if, let's say, Man United can't guarantee me minutes, I will stay at Genk.
"The important thing is that in the near future there a lot of games to come."
