Hull defender Jacob Greaves is being monitored by Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest as they look to bolster their defensive ranks for next season.
Greaves is regarded as one of the most interesting defensive prospects outside the top flight. A left-footer, Greaves is most comfortable in central defence but has also been operating at left-back under Tigers boss Liam Rosenior.
He has already played more than 100 games for his hometown club and is regularly catching the eye of Premier League scouts, with Brentford also believed to be interested in the 22-year-old, who is also Hull’s vice-captain.
