Aston Villa captain Jack Grealish is back in training ahead of their clash with Tottenham.

The Villa midfielder has missed Dean Smith's side's last five matches with a leg injury, says the Mirror.

Villa have won just once without their talisman, 25, who has six goals and 10 assists in the Premier League this term.

But the star is now in line to return on Sunday when Tottenham visit Villa Park in a 7.30pm kick off.

Grealish returned to full training at Villa's Bodymoor HQ this week after a month out.

The star now hopes his return is in time to satisfy England boss Gareth Southgate ahead of this month's World Cup qualifiers.
