Roy Hodgson admits Grealish 'on his radar'

England manager Roy Hodgson has revealed that Jack Grealish is "on his radar".

The Aston Villa teenager is set to decide over the summer if he will declare as an international for England or Ireland - after he turned down a recent call-up from Ireland boss Martin O'Neill.

Hodgson has admitted that he is keeping tabs on the 19-year-old, but insists that he will not be putting any "undue influence" on the player.

"I think it's important that we leave it to him. He is a very talented player and has been on the radar of our younger teams," said Hodgson.

"I have known about him and recently he has broken into the Aston Villa team, which raises the subject. He could play for either country, which one's it going to be? As far as I'm concerned it's got to be Jack's decision and I don't think we should be putting undue influence on him."
