Chelsea chasing Villa whizkid Jack Grealish

Chelsea are eyeing Aston Villa whizkid Jack Grealish. The Daily Star says the Blues are lurking with Villa battling to persuade Grealish to sign a new contract.

Chelsea are long-term admirers of the exciting 18-year-old winger, but they have failed to lure him to Stamford Bridge despite making previous attempts as he has risen through the Villa ranks.

They are now on alert again with his contract talks delicately poised.

Grealish's current deal is due to expire next summer.

Villa have held discussions with him about a new long-term deal worth in the region of £5,000-a-week.
