United Handed Major Boost In Their Attempts To Secure £75m Rated Playmaker

Aston Villa playmaker Jack Grealish intends to leave the Midlands club at the end of the season, according to The Athletic reporter Gregg Evans.

The 24-year-old is being pursued by Manchester United and it appears that the Red Devils will have a great chance of securing a deal for one of their top summer targets.

Grealish is currently focused on keeping his team in the top flight, but once the campaign is completed, he is expected to move on in order to further his career.


Villa are unlikely to let him go without a fight, though, with the club being owned by two billionaires. Reports have suggested that bid in excess of £75m could be needed to persuade the Villans into selling their captain.

Whether United will consider making such a big offer for Grealish, it remains to be seen. The Manchester side are also keen on signing Borussia Dortmund’s Jadon Sancho who is valued at £115m by his club.
