The 19 year old spent last season on loan at Notts County but has enjoyed two sub appearances in Premier League action this term and is clearly a player with a bright future.
Villa Park boss Paul Lambert may struggle to keep hold of the youngster, who can play in an attacking midfield role or out on the wing, especially as Chelsea are also said to be keen on the Republic of Ireland Under 21 international.
Aston Villa will look to tie down Grealish to a new deal as a matter of urgency though Old Trafford boss Louis van Gaal will look to register his interest in the highly rated starlet.
Louis van Gaal spent over £150m on new signings over the summer with a view to making an immediate improvement to the squad he inherited from former boss David Moyes but interest in a young talent such as Grealish perhaps implies a long term plan to build a team up for the future.
