West Ham United are reportedly amongst the Premier League sides interested in signing Jack Grealish from Aston Villa this summer.

West Ham fans have been reacting on Twitter to the reports coming out of the Daily Mail this week which have suggested that the Hammers are amongst the group of sides interested in handing Jack Grealish the chance to swap Aston Villa for the Premier League this summer.

The Mail reports that Grealish’s future is very much up in the air after the Villans missed out on the chance to secure promotion in the Championship play-off final. Despite the 22-year-old’s brilliance, Fulham ran out 1-0 winners at Wembley.

The Mail suggests that Villa need to sell players this summer and West Ham, Everton and Leicester are all considering testing the club’s resolve to keep hold of Grealish – who Villa value at more than £25 million.

Unsurprisingly, news of West Ham’s interest has led to plenty of debate on social media with many of the Irons supporters divided over whether the attacking midfielder would be a good signing or not.

Some feel that Grealish would not be worth the outlay given that he did not manage to make a major impact during Villa’s previous season at the highest level barring a few glimpses of quality.

However, there are many who believe that the youngster would be a superb signing for the Irons as they prepare for Manuel Pellegrini’s first campaign at the helm. Grealish has arguably taken his game to an entirely different level over the last few months and really drove Villa to the brink of promotion.

Several Hammers fans believe that he would be a fantastic addition to Pellegrini’s ranks given his potential and natural talent, and they are urging the club to make something happen this summer.

Here is the best of the reaction to the reports…
