MANCHESTER UNITED are talks over signing Aston Villa winger Leon Bailey before the end of the January window, reports say.

Any deal for Bailey would be separate from Marcus Rashford’s pending loan move to Villa for the remainder of the 2024-25 season.

Rashford’s exit means United need to plug a hole in attacking areas and fill the gap in Ruben Amorim’s squad.

United are yet to advance talks with Villa over Bailey but it is understood that Ineos prefer a loan deal first, according to The Athletic.

The 27-year-old was a fan favourite at Villa Park but is not a guaranteed starter under Unai Emery.

He has started 13 of Villa’s 23 Premier League games this season and been subbed on seven times, being unused twice and injured once.

But the winger has started five of the club’s eight Champions League fixtures, as Emery’s side automatically qualified for the last-16.

Bailey has scored once in the Prem this term – a late winner against Leicester in January.

But he was one of Villa’s standout performers last season, with 10 goals and nine assists during their march to Champions League qualification.

Bailey joined Villa from Bayer Leverkusen in 2021 and has scored 21 times across 134 appearances, including 14 goals in 2023-24.

Rashford will join Villa on a temporary deal for the remainder of the campaign and undergo his medical on Sunday.

Villa have agreed to pay 70 per cent of the England international’s £325,000-a-week salary.

It’s understood that Villa also have the option to make Rashford’s move permanent in the summer window for £40 million.

While Rashford, 27, likes to play as a left-sided winger, Jamaican international Bailey operates on the right flank.

United first looked at Bailey back in 2016, when he was still in his teens.

Jim Lawlor, the club’s chief scout at the time, watched Bailey in action for Genk against Sassuolo and saw him score as the Belgian side won 3-1.

United then eyed him up again during his four year spell at Leverkusen, but ended up landing Jadon Sancho.

United are now focused on signing a replacement for their home-grown star.

The club unveiled left wing-back Patrick Dorgu and Arsenal youngster Ayden Heaven at Old Trafford this afternoon.

The club have already made an approach for Bayern Munich winger Mathys Tel, who has already rejected a move to Tottenham this week.

Arsenal have now joined the race for Tel.

A WOMAN who snapped up what might be Homes Under the Hammer’s tiniest house has revealed she placed her bid just seconds before the auction closed – without even stepping foot inside the property.

Carol bagged the minuscule home in Pontycymer, South Wales, for £43,500 – significantly above the £27,000 guide price – in what she describes as a ‘moment of madness.’

She told presenter Martin Roberts: “It was a spontaneous buy – one minute and eight seconds before the auction finished. I didn’t really read the auction pack either.”

Carol admitted that while she skimmed the legal pack enough to confirm the property was freehold and check for flood risks, she didn’t investigate further before committing to the deal.

Instead, she was enjoying a relaxed evening at home when the final seconds of the online auction ticked down.

“I did read those two little things and then I pressed the buy button,” she said. “I hadn’t been to see it or anything, but we all have moments of madness. I thought I’d see what happens, and here we are!”

The home’s proportions shocked the Malvern postie when she finally visited in person.

“I did a drive-by after the auction and I was thinking, ‘Where is the rest of it?’” she laughed.

“I opened the door and I was like, wow, there is no more, this is it. I think the school Wendy house was somewhat bigger than this.”

The property, which had previously been a commercial unit, consisted of a single upstairs room with a narrow staircase leading to a damp-ridden lower ground floor.

Some work had been started to add a shower room and bedroom, but much of it was incomplete.

Even Martin, who has seen his fair share of bizarre properties in his two decades on the show, was left gobsmacked.

“You are having a laugh, wow, blink and you’ll miss it!” he said, dubbing it a ‘doll’s house’ and declaring it likely the smallest property ever featured on Homes Under the Hammer.

Despite its size, Carol and her partner Steve – an electrician – set about tackling the renovation with an initial budget of £10,000.

But as many DIY enthusiasts will know, things rarely go according to plan.

The couple ended up spending nearly twice that amount, ultimately pouring £63,000 into the project.

Fifteen months later, the transformation was complete.

The damp issues were sorted with new guttering, a cleverly redesigned staircase created extra space, and the entire home was given a modern makeover.

A compact kitchen, fresh flooring, and a stylish shower room made the most of the small footprint, and Steve even managed to squeeze in an outdoor storage shed.

One unexpected hurdle was the need for a sprinkler system, as the property’s conversion from commercial to residential meant it was classified as a ‘new build’.

When an estate agent returned to assess the finished property, they estimated a resale value of around £60,000 – meaning Carol and Steve would take a loss if they sold up.

However, the couple had already secured a tenant keen to move in, ensuring a steady rental income.

Steve admitted: “We’ve done three properties over the last three years, and the others are somewhat bigger than this. But this one has been more headaches than the other two put together!”

Despite the challenges, Carol has no regrets about her whirlwind purchase.

“You can’t put a price on the fun we’ve had!” she said.

GARDAI has issued an urgent warning to all Irish motorists after a driver was caught speeding while under the influencer of alcohol.

A driver was caught speeding at 166kmh in a 100kmh zone on the M50 by the DMR Road Policing Units last night.

The motorists failed a roadside breath test and blew over the legal alcohol limit at the station.

A spokesperson on X revealed that court proceedings are underway.

They said: “Epic Fail! Motorist caught speeding at 166km/h in a 100km/h zone on the M50 by our DMR Roads Policing Units late last night.

“They failed a roadside breath test and blew over the legal alcohol limit at the station. Court proceedings are underway.”

The current drinking-driving limit is a BAC of 50mg, which means that 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100 millilitres of blood.

For professional, learner and novice drivers, the limit is a BAC of 20mg.

Most people will have a BAC of 20 to 50mg after one standard drink, which is a pub measure of spirits, a small glass of wine, a half pint of regular beer and an alcopop.

It takes most people 1 to 2 hours to process 1 standard drink. That means after 3 standard drinks, you should wait at least 3 hours before driving.

Gardai urges people not to drive after drinking an alcoholic drink as it affects their reaction times, coordination, concentration, judgement and vision on the road.

They highly encourage people to have a designated driver and find out about public transport options before going out or having the budget for a taxi.

And they urge that you have a backup plan for getting home, such as a friend or parent you can call if you are stuck.

Another option is to arrange a place to stay overnight in the area and drive on the road in the morning once the alcohol content passes through.

BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND ROAD OPERATIONS

This comes after Gardai have been carrying out the road operation nationwide since 7am on Thursday as part of the St Brigid’s Day Bank Holiday weekend roads policing operation.

Throughout the operation, Gardai are conducting both statutory Mandatory Intoxicant Testing and regular, high-visibility policing checkpoints from Thursday to Tuesday.

Since the operation commenced on Thursday morning, nearly 580 drivers were detected for speeding offences during the first 48 hours.

A total of 63 people have been arrested for driving under the influence of an intoxicant, which is alcohol and drugs.

There were three fatalities on the roads during the first 48 hours of the operation, bringing the total number to 14 fatal deaths this year.

Gardai revealed that most road motorists were travelling within the designated speed, but four drivers were detected to be driving dangerously.

One of the motorists was detected driving 139km/h in a 100km/h zone on the N4 at Cullen Beg in Mullingar, Co Westmeath.

Another driver was caught speeding 116km/h in a 80km/h zone on the N55 at Lissoy in Glasson, Co Westmeath.

One was detected driving 106km/h in a 60km/h zone on the R702 at Ballyellin and Tomdarragh in Goresbridge, Co Carlow.

And another was spotted speeding 86km/h in a 50km/h zone on the R661 at Holycross in Co Tipperary.

Despite the figures being reduced, there is a low number of motorists using the roads as communities continue to deal with the effects of Storm Eowyn.

ADDING some tiling to your bathroom or kitchen is a quick way to give the space a touch of glam.

But it can be pricey if you’re after the latest in-trend colours and styles, with costs adding up quickly.

Wickes

One lucky shopper on a mission to secure some tiles spotted an absolute bargain in her local branch of Wickes, and posted her find to Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK.

Sina Jagpal shared her haul with the group’s 2.6 million members, who share deals, offers and money-saving tips with each other.

Sina wrote: “I got these for 1p for each box so a whopping 2p.

“Originally £21 a pack of tiles but they are scanning at 1p in Wickes apparently due to the line changing!

“Even the man at the till called a manager as he said he didn’t think it was right but it was!

“My lucky day hey!”

Sina added a pic of her bargains, two boxes of gorgeous sage green Cosmopolitan style wall tiles.

The Wickes website describes the tiles as “a timeless small format range of ceramic tiles in a stunning gloss finish.”

The tiles can be placed in line, in a herringbone effect or brick bond, meaning there’s loads of different patterns and designs you can use them for.

And they’re perfect for modernising an old room.

The Wickes website even recommends using coloured grout to make the colour of the tiles pop.

The glossy tiles are easy to wipe clean, making them easy to keep looking fresh.

They’re also water resistant, so they are perfect for washrooms and kitchens.

On the Wickes website, happy customers have given the tiles an incredible 4.8 star rating.

Other members of the Facebook bargain-hunting group couldn’t believe Sina’s luck.

One person said: “Well done you right place right time.”

Another person chimed in: “Omg amazing!”

And somebody else said: “Well done.”
