Aston Villa FC news: Jack Grealish handed three match ban following violent conduct charge

Aston Villa midfielder Jack Grealish has been banned for three games after accepting a charge of violent conduct.

The 21-year-old will serve the suspension immediately meaning he will miss Villa's Sky Bet Championship trip to Reading on Tuesday - as well as their Second City derby with Birmingham at the end of the month.

Grealish avoided punishment in Saturday's 1-1 draw with Wolves after he stamped on Conor Coady during the game at Villa Park.
