Former England Under-21 International Claims Tottenham Target Was Disappointed to Miss Out on Move

Television pundit and former Nottingham Forest player David Prutton has weighed in on the situation of Aston Villa's 23-year-old talisman Jack Grealish.

The midfielder has caught the eye of several Premier League clubs, and was heavily linked with a move to north London in the summer, but the move failed to materialise – and Prutton has claimed that the former England Under-21 international was left disappointed.

Prutton told Express Sport: "Grealish was a little disappointed [that the move didn’t happen] and I’ve had this discussion with a lot of people.

"When Grealish is at his best, he’s a technically gifted footballer who is capable of real ingenuity and creativity.
