Aston Villa captain Jack Grealish has opened the door on a potential move to Manchester United by revealing that Old Trafford is his "favourite ground in the Premier League".

The 24-year-old, who scored against United in Manchester earlier this month, is believed to be a transfer target for the 20-time English champions ahead of the January window.

Grealish has revealed that he fulfilled a dream by playing at Old Trafford earlier this season, fuelling suggestions that he could ultimately make the move to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side.

"That was my favourite goal ever. Scoring at Old Trafford. I've always wanted to play at Old Trafford," Grealish told Sky Sports News. "I've played there before in a reserve cup final but it's not the same when it's like that. That's obviously my favourite ground in the Premier League.

"If you actually watch the goal, I get so much curve on the ball I don't actually know I got that much curve on it. It was one of them, as soon as I shot I knew it was going into the top corner and I couldn't have hit it any better."

Grealish has contributed seven goals and six assists in 20 appearances for Villa this season.
