Watch: Leon Bailey Scores Sublime Free-Kick For Bayer Leverkusen

Leon Bailey continued to improve his reputation as a budding superstar with an outrageous free-kick for Bayer Leverkusen.

The talented winger has been subject to intense transfer speculation following his glittering season in the Bundesliga.

He's creating, and scoring goals with a host of Europe's elite keeping tabs on his rapid progress.

And on Tuesday night against Bayern Munich, he converted a beautiful set-piece.

What a strike!

Naturally, his goal sent social media into overdrive. Here's some reaction from Twitter:

Though, ultimately, his goal meant nothing in terms of a result.

Bayer lost 6-2 to Bayern in the DFB Cup.

The reigning German champions ran riot with Robert Lewandowski (x2), Thomas Muller (x3) and Thiago all getting on the score-sheet.

But Bailey's thunderous free-kick was easily goal of the night.
