Tottenham Hotspur remain odds-on favourite to land Aston Villa star

Tottenham Hotspur remain the odds-on 4/11 favourite on SkyBet to land Aston Villa midfielder Jack Grealish this summer.

The 22-year-old is likely to leave his home-town club Aston Villa this summer as they look to slash their wage bill and balance their books.

Other clubs in the race to sign him are Chelsea (9/2), Leicester City (12/1) and Liverpool (14/1), but Spurs are the clear favourites to hand him a route back into the Premier League.

Jack Grealish helped Aston Villa get to the Play-Off final last season but could they lost out to Fulham in the final, hence why they have slumped into some financial difficulty. They are now looking to offload some of their high-earners and Grealish is one of them. Villa have also received interest from Stoke City in defender James Chester, whilst their Australian international midfielder Mile Jedinak is looking to set to leave them.

Grealish would be a huge miss for Aston Villa. He joined their academy in 2001 and has risen through the youth ranks at Villa Park. Grealish made his debut for them in May 2014 against Manchester City and has since over 100 games for the club he supported as a child.

He would be a decent by Spurs, who tend to go for young English talents. They have the likes of Harry Kane, Delle Alli, Kieran Trippier and Eric Dier already in their ranks and playing in and around these players could really enhance the career of Jack Grealish. This is a story to keep an eye on.
