Aston Villa midfielder McGinn admits privilege to play with Grealish

Aston Villa midfielder John McGinn admits it has been a privilege to play with Jack Grealish.

The 24-year-old has been linked with a move to Manchester United this summer.

"Jack scored a massive goal for this club and no-one can get away from that," McGinn said. "He woke up on Sunday and we had a chat, all the focus was on keeping Villa in this league.

"Our focus last season was getting the club promoted, our focus this year was keeping them in the league and we have managed to do that.

"What happens now I am not sure but Jack is still contracted here. It has been a privilege to play alongside him and hopefully that continues but you never know in football."
