Aston Villa cult hero Tony Daley believes Jack Grealish could yet reject a move to Manchester United.

Daley, capped seven times by England in the early 90s, is convinced long-time Manchester United target Grealish is now primed to deliver on the international stage.

He said, “I agree Jack now warrants a place in the England squad. He gave consistently good performances last season.

“When he was in the Championship, there were doubts if he could do it in the Premier League. Fair enough. But he's now proved he can.

“If Jack goes, he'll have everyone's blessing here at Villa because of what he's just done for the club," added Daley, a leading professional fitness coach.

“But if he's been picked for England already, he might think he's better off staying with Villa, where he's settled and plays every week.

“The Euros are coming up next summer – and Jack needs to be playing to stay in Southgate's plans."
