Jack Grealish has signed a new five-year deal with Aston Villa that includes a huge release clause, according to the Sun.
The report adds that Tottenham offered £25million for the midfielder in the summer. But to sign him now, we would have to double the amount.
Grealish was one of the stars for the Villans last season but they missed out on promotion to the Premier League.
Villa aren’t doing well in the Championship as they lie 13th with 13 points from nine games. Grealish is yet to score for his boyhood club in the ongoing term.
With his selling price doubled, as per the report, some Tottenham fans weren’t sure about the club making a move for the player while a few blamed Daniel Levy for botching the transfer.

This ship has sailed methinks. We were interested in a bargain but lost out in the poker game because their ownership changed.

That ship has sailed. Oliver Skipp is the one to watch at Spurs. He’s the one to come through next. Luke Amos will also get his chances in domestic cups. If we buy a midfielder there is miles better value & potential than JG imho. Eg Doucoure

@SpursOfficial have missed a trick not moving for Maddison ahead of Grealish, Maddison had a much better season but Grealish worth more money apparently. Leicester got a bargain in my opinion.

We don’t need anyone according to Lewis, Levy and Pochettino.
