Don't think it will go that high unless there is a bidding war, but he's probably worth it. 15 goals and 16 assists (14 NPGs) is massive. Grealish got 6&7 in the Championship in 2018 by comparison (Buendia got 8 &12 that year as well).
What people forgets is his defensive attributes. Guy is like Santi but stronger. He Made a Lot of tackles and recover the ball very good. Like Alexis playing throug the middle. He is Santi and Alexis combined. I am 99% sure he Will move to CM later like Santi did.

Forced out because he offered him a new contract and told him he was 95% likely to start the season as #1? Nice.
"It took 10 years to get there. You train as a goalkeeper every day, but nobody prepares you for the story of your life.

"Nobody trains you to be frustrated, nobody trains you to cry.

"What about when you don’t play for four months? Will you keep going or will you be mentally dead?

"I could’ve done so much more over the years, but finally the world started to see what I’m capable of."

His time between the sticks was immensely successful, winning the FA Cup and Community Shield in the process.

But after Leno resumed fitness, he was back in goal - much to Martinez's annoyance.

It led to the 28-year-old demanding a move away, with Aston Villa signing him for a fee of around £20m.

“I thought if I played well that game [the Community Shield], I would be No.1, but afterwards it still wasn’t clear who was going to start in the league," Martinez added.

"I was told that there was a 95% chance I would start against Fulham, but I just thought, ‘why not 100%?’

Arsenal Quotes

In June 1996, David Dein, Peter Hill-Wood and Danny Fiszman came out to Nagoya to meet me on behalf of Arsenal. Within an hour we came to an agreement. The Japanese directors didn't try to keep hold of me in the usual way but talked with persuasive arguments... But as far as I was concerned, the decision was taken. Arsenal. A decision that would change my life.
