Aston Villa manager Tim Sherwood says that he would not sell young midfielder star Jack Grealish for £60 million.Grealish, 20, has quickly become one of Villa's most influential players after breaking into the first-team last season.The midfielder has received plenty of praise so far this term and helped his side past Birmingham City in the midweek Capital One Cup clash.Some of the Premier League's elite are reported to be watching Grealish, but Sherwood is not willing to part with anything in return for his star."I wouldn't want to sell [him] for £60m today, put it that way," he said. "I know what he could possibly be. What looks expensive this year might not be expensive next year. That's the way the game is going."He's a great player is Jack, but he's got to realise -- I've been on at him every day -- there is more to the game than just when you're in possession."That Liverpool game was huge with a lot of expectancy and pressure, it didn't faze him, he grew more."He is certainly a type of player we have seen at the very top level for the likes of Liverpool and in the past for Aston Villa, we have to recognise that."He's not shop window job, he's our player, and we couldn't put a price on him. I certainly wouldn't."
