Jonathan Barnett has hinted Jack Grealish could leave Aston Villa by claiming the lure of Champions League football would greatly benefit his development.

Grealish has been heavily linked with a move away from Villa - who are in trouble of being relegated back to the Championship - with Manchester United eyeing up a £50million move, while City have also shown an interest.
