Aston Villa midfielder Jack Grealish has said that he is 'flattered' by speculation linking him with a move to Manchester United.

The 24-year-old has been the stand-out performer for his boyhood club this season, scoring seven goals and registering six assists.

However, Grealish has said that he is trying to keep his feet on the ground and focus on Villa's relegation battle.

Speaking to the Express & Star, the midfielder said: "Of course it's nice. Who doesn't like to be talked about in a nice way? But, to be honest, I try and take everything with a pinch of salt.

"It is nice to read and nice to listen to, but I don't let it get to me too much, because I know how quickly it can change."

Previously linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur, Grealish is expected by many to possibly feature in Gareth Southgate's England squad for this summer's European Championships.
