Bolasie believes Grealish is the Championship’s best player

Former Aston Villa loanee Yannick Bolasie believes that Jack Grealish is currently the best player in the Championship.

The winger spent the first half of the season at Villa Park after joining from Everton temporarily until the end of the campaign.

However, after flattering to deceive for his loan club, the deal was cut short. The Toffees proceeded to send the experienced attacker away again, with RSC Anderlecht snapping him up in a short-term move.

Bolasie’s time at Villa did not go as planned, but it seems one player, in particular, made a lasting impression on him.

In response to Soccer AM’s question of who the best player in the Championship is on Twitter, the DR Congo international was confident in his answer and tagged Grealish.

The playmaker is currently sidelined with a shin injury but is working his way back to full fitness as Dean Smith’s side make a late push for the play-offs.
