Jack Grealish's agent has cast doubt on a huge summer move to Manchester United, after admitting the Red Devils are not 'at the top of the list' of potential suitors for his client.
Super-agent Jonathan Barnett, who represents Grealish along with the likes of Gareth Bale, spoke out this week regarding the future of the Villa captain.
The 71-year-old conducted a remote interview with SNTV in which he admitted that Grealish could even yet remain with his boyhood club, despite growing interest in his services.
Barnett said: 'The truth is we don't know (what will happen). There are many clubs (interested) and I wouldn't put Manchester United at the top of that (list).
'But he could stay. He could stay as well so it's a conversation the club, Aston Villa, will have with Jack and ourselves then we'll see where we go.'
Grealish has been linked with both United and their rivals City, though transfer speculation has appeared to die down after the player endured an injury-hit 2021.
Grealish has been absent for Villa for several weeks with a shin problem, though is expected to be fit in time to play a starring role for England at this summer's dealyed European championships.
Barnett added: 'He loves Villa but I think we just have to wait and see how things pan out.
'At the moment he is a Villa player and he has no thoughts about anything else.
'He could be a big star in the summer, he maybe should have been playing a little bit earlier for England.
'It is unfortunate that he has got this injury at the moment but that will be fine.'

Exactly what United need, let’s sell Pogba and buy Grealish, sell Degea buy A strong/good and reliable Centre back to partner H Magure (Koulibaly or Konate) sell Martial and Lingard to fund money to buy Harry Kane. With the inclusion of H Kane, J Grealish and either of Koulibaly or Konate Manchester United should be able to challenge next season. We don’t need e defensive MF we already have FRED and Mc Tominay so what’s the need for wasting money on that again. Let Man U let go Pogba, Degea, Martial and Lingard
Agree to all but selling Pogba

United should sell some defender, midfield and attacker away this summer ppl like mata, martial, matic and Jones. Buy some quality players like sancho, rice and a top class defender to make the squad even more competitive.. I believe ole is doing bit by bit just give him some more time to recruit and bring the young ones up to the 1st team... United will conquer again in the next few years.
