Championship trio Leeds, QPR, Derby want Aston Villa bad boy Grealish

Aston Villa attacking midfielder Jack Grealish is a target for a trio of Championship clubs.

According to the Daily Mail,Leeds United, QPR and Derby County are all interested in taking the 20-year-old on loan this month.

The talented yet poorly-behaved Grealish has fallen out of favour under Remi Garde at Villa Park and could be given permission to leave during the winter transfer window despite starting in the weekend's 3-1 loss to Sunderland.

Grealish landed himself in hot water with the French manager in November last year when he was omitted from the first team squad after partying on both Saturday and Sunday nights after a heavy defeat to Everton and has struggled for regular game time since.

It is believed that tier two trio, Leeds, the R's and Derby, are all keen on Grealish and could make enquiries about his availability in the current transfer window.
