Aston Villa captain Jack Grealish emerges as a leading transfer target for Manchester City, according to a report.

Manchester City have reportedly identified Aston Villa captain Jack Grealish as their leading transfer target.

The 25-year-old was strongly linked with a move away from Villa Park over the summer, but he ultimately penned a new five-year contract with Dean Smith's side in September.

Grealish has been in brilliant form for his club during the 2020-21 campaign, contributing four goals and six assists in seven Premier League appearances.

According to the Daily Star, Pep Guardiola's side have been impressed by the attacker's development, and the England international has now become 'the main focus of City's attentions'.

Grealish, who is thought to be valued by Villa in excess of £70m, was believed to be a target for Manchester United over the summer after an impressive finish to the 2019-20 season.

The playmaker provided an assist in England's 3-0 win over the Republic of Ireland on Thursday night.
