Jack Grealish has been warned he must play in the Premier League
Grealish is one of the Championship’s best players and was a summer target for Tottenham, but the life-long Villa fan remained with his boyhood club.
It means he has not played top flight football since they were relegated in 2016.
Players such as Declan Rice, who also swapped Ireland for England, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Jadon Sancho have all made their debuts for the Three Lions and Southgate has stressed the standard between the two leagues plays a big part in his thinking.

“Although we can see the quality, when the evidence of the opponent is a different level, that’s where it’s hard to directly correlate what that’s going to look like at a level above.
“With Callum [Hudson-Odoi], he’s playing Europa League, he’s playing Premier League – that does make a difference.
“I’m not going to say we won’t pick a player from the Championship because that could happen but it’s far more difficult to assess his level.
