Hodgson praises Grealish for “bolder decision” to represent England over Ireland

Roy Hodgson has warned Jack Grealish he cannot guarantee him a place in his squad despite the midfielder’s decision to represent England over the Republic of Ireland.

The Solihull-born 20-year-old turned out for Ireland’s Under-17s as he qualified through his grandparents but his form for Aston Villa has seen him touted as a future England international.
