Pundit claims Jack Grealish 'walks into Liverpool side' as Jurgen Klopp urged to make move

Liverpool are being urged to make a move for Aston Villa attacking midfielder Jack Grealish - with Andy Gray claiming he is a better player than both Naby Keita and Gini Wijnaldum .

Speaking on Bein Sports , the former Everton forward and current football pundit explained how highly he rates the Birmingham-born creator.

He said: "I know he's a Villa fan, his family are all Villa fans, he loves the club and he loves being captain.

"But Jack's 24 now and I think there is a decision coming at the end of this season. And I hate to say it, but I don't think he'll be there in August.

"If I was a coach of any of the top-six, and I include Liverpool in this, he would make the team better.

"He is, in my opinion, better than any of Liverpool's midfield players. I think he is better than Keita. I think he's better than Wijnaldum.

"I think he'd get into the City side. He's much better than Foden. I just think he's that good.

"When you give someone a football. You watch somebody on a football pitch. He has a football at his feet and in his control. Special players, they just stand out.

"He'd walk into Spurs' side. At Chelsea, I know they talk about Mason Mount but I think right now he's better than Mason Mount.

"If he's getting sold this summer then I guarantee you that a host of the biggest clubs will be after him."

Liverpool have already made a first-team signing this month in the form of Takumi Minamino .

Grealish is being tipped to be involved in England's squad for the European Championships during the summer alongside the likes of Liverpool's Jordan Henderson and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain .
