# Aston Villa: Fans react to Grealish update

**Plenty of Aston Villa fans have been giving their thoughts to the latest update regarding Jack Grealish on social media.**

The club captain, who has been heavily [linked](https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-major-update-on-man-city-bid-to-sign-grealish-from-aston-villa/) with a move to Manchester City this summer, has missed the last [11](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jack-grealish/leistungsdaten/spieler/203460) games through injury.

He’ll once again be absent in Villa’s home clash with Manchester United on Sunday afternoon, however, manager Dean Smith did [confirm](https://twitter.com/AVFCOfficial/status/1390600110736875520) that Grealish is now ‘out on the grass’ and ‘will start training with the group tomorrow’.

Grealish has been influential for Villa this season, contributing to [18](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jack-grealish/leistungsdaten/spieler/203460) league goals. Smith’s side have struggled without their main creative spark, picking up [12 points from a possible 33](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jack-grealish/leistungsdaten/spieler/203460).

It appears to be a positive step for the attacking midfielder, though, who last kicked a competitive ball for Villa back in [February](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jack-grealish/leistungsdaten/spieler/203460).
