Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with Jack Grealish, with West Ham United, Newcastle United and Chelsea also claimed to be interested in the Aston Villa star.

According to Sky Sports, Tottenham have already made a £15 million offer for Grealish, who can operate as an attacking midfielder or as a winger.

With Tottenham having (reportedly) made an offer for Grealish, you would expect them to be the frontrunners for the Villa star, but according to The Mirror, the youngster is likely to be at Leicester next season.

The Mirror has claimed that Leicester is a more likely destination than Tottenham for Grealish, as the Foxes will be looking to make a statement signing if they lose winger Riyad Mahrez to Manchester City.

Summer transfer saga

Grealish seems to be a player in demand, and it is hard to see Villa make a decision on his future anytime soon.

One should not surprised if this particular transfer drags on all summer, as the Villans will be looking to make as much money as they can from the sale of the 22-year-old.
