In an interview with France Football, Aston Villa right-back Frederic Guilbert has given his opinion over starlet Jack Grealish’s rumoured move away from the Midlands – with the defender since going on to say that he could move to a ‘big club this summer‘.
Guilbert, who has become Dean Smith’s first choice right-back since signing from French outfit Caen back in January 2019, spoke candidly over his teammate in an interview with France Football – with the defender going on to say that Grealish could very well move to a ‘big club this summer‘.
Described as ‘tough tackling’ by media outlet SoccerSouls, Guilbert has played a consistent role in the team alongside Grealish. The Englishman, who has scored seven goals and assisted six others in the Premier League this season (WhoScored), is currently turning the heads of top six clubs – including English giants Manchester United (Birmingham Mail). Earning the nickname ‘Super Jack’, Grealish has become a key player for Villa in recent seasons – with a lot of fans of course desperate for him to stay at Villa Park.
As a result, many supporters have debated Gilbert’s ‘odd’ comments over his potential exit on social media – find all of their best comments down below.
Freddie seems pretty committed to Villa and this seems a bit odd. Villa is a big club with big ambitious owners.

@fredguilbert24 why are you backing Jack to leave Villa !? Really don’t like that

Can we all not lay into a player who in the past few days has already said how tough the language barrier has been and how isolated him and his young family feel?

Problem Jack has is playing with very average players like Freddie that for a lot of this year looks out of his depth in Prem. Jacks at a big club and Freddie is very lucky to be in same side as Jack.

Has he backed him or was he merely answering a question whether Jack could play for a “big team” smells like lazy journalism 😒

I would be disappointed if @fredguilbert24 said that ! Jack is already at a big club and he @fredguilbert24 should know that !!!
