admin It’s been reported that Manchester City have doubts about Jack Grealish and are contemplating a surprising sale this summer.
Grealish was acquired from Aston Villa for £100m in 2021, recognized for his immense potential after leading Villa in recent seasons.
During his last season at Villa, Grealish scored seven goals and contributed ten assists, consistently troubling defenders.
City to sell Grealish this summer?
Under Pep Guardiola, Jack Grealish’s style of play has notably evolved, with the free-flowing football he showcased at Villa appearing to be a thing of the past.
Despite this shift, the 28-year-old has made contributions during his tenure at The Etihad. He played a pivotal role in the team’s treble victory last season, tallying five goals and 11 assists.
Injuries have limited the former Villa player to just 17 league appearances this season, where he scored three goals and provided one assist. Football Insider suggests that Guardiola harbors doubts about Grealish, viewing him as expendable this summer.
Despite Grealish’s overall positive contribution to the club, reports indicate that City would entertain offers for him.
Football Insider even suggests that a surprising sale is increasingly likely, with the club anticipating a substantial fee if they decide to offload the winger.
With three years remaining on his current contract, Grealish could indeed fetch a substantial transfer fee from potential suitors. City are reportedly eyeing a significant investment this summer, particularly targeting Bayern Munich’s Jamal Musiala, whom they see as an upgrade in their current positions.
Grealish’s reduced influence and Kevin De Bruyne’s injury woes have led City to consider bolstering their squad. Bayern is said to demand over £100m for Musiala, who is considered one of Europe’s brightest talents.
The proceeds from a potential Grealish sale could contribute to funding the acquisition of the 21-year-old, who has amassed an impressive tally of 12 goals and seven assists across all competitions this season.
