John McGinn is proof that there's top talent in Scottish football says John Terry

John Terry believes John McGinn is living proof that top talent does still exist in Scottish football.

The ex-Hibs midfielder enjoyed a sensational first season after moving to Aston Villa for £2.75million last August and hos now been linked with £50m transfer to Manchester Utd.

That could spell a financial windfall for the Hibees , who were today taken over by American businessman .

And Terry, McGinn’s assistant manager at Villa Park, has tipped “Meatbaw” to be a star in England’s top flight.

“Down south people watch Scottish football,” he said. “John McGinn is a prime example that there is talent up there and there is probably more to come out of it as well.

"What a player he is. He is a great lad. He gets that backside into people and rolls people!

“He is an absolute pleasure to work with. To work with him on a daily basis is great.

“He is an absolute gentleman, a real talent and I think he is going to take the Premier League by storm this year because people aren’t going to know what to expect.

“He is a real top talent, a great lad who is keen to get better and improve himself.”
