Leicester City eye Grealish deal

Leicester City are weighing up a £20m move for Aston Villa midfielder Jack Grealish, according to the Mirror.

The twenty-two year old has been one of the stand-out performers in Villa’s promotion push, with the Midlands side certain for a top six finish at the very least.

Should Steve Bruce’s side not clinch a return to the top flight a number of sides are likely to circle around Grealish though the Foxes are keen to steal a march on the rivals.

Having spent the majority of the 2013/14 campaign on loan at Notts County, the England U21 international made his Villains debut at the end of that season as a substitute in a 4-0 defeat to Manchester City.

Since then he has played over a hundred times in all competitions, scoring nine goals – two of which have come in his last three appearances.

Villa are currently priced at 5/2 to be promoted to the Premier League.
