Aston Villa midfielder Jack Grealish is reportedly a target for Championship side Nottingham Forest.

The 19-year-old, who is yet to start a Premier League match for Villa, recently signed a new four-year deal with the club.

Grealish impressed during a loan spell with Forest's neighbours Notts County last season.

Recent reports have suggested that Chelsea and Manchester City are interested in signing the highly-rated youngster.

Forest manager Stuart Pearce is keen to use the loan market to bolster his squad and has identified Grealish as a target, according to The Mirror.

Grealish has made five appearances for Villa this season.
