Waddle doubts Aston Villa can keep Spurs, Man Utd target Grealish

England legend Chris Waddle believes teams will be queuing up to sign Jack Grealish this summer.

Manchester United are reportedly extremely keen on the Aston Villa playmaker.

And Waddle thinks they would be getting a superstar in Grealish.

He told Racing Post: "Jack Grealish is a fantastic player with a massive future – but don't presume that he'll be a hit wherever he goes next. It's almost a win-win situation for Grealish at the moment.

"As a Villa fan, he would love nothing more than to help the club he supports stay in the Premier League and maybe win a cup as well.

"But if it does all go wrong and Villa are relegated then he knows there will be a queue of clubs clamouring to sign him.

"Tottenham would love to sign him, so too Manchester United but he's a Birmingham lad, born and bred, and he might not naturally settle away from his comfort zone. In terms of pure talent, though, Grealish is a superstar."
