Premier League champions Manchester City are reportedly ready to part ways with 29-year-old English international Jack Grealish in the summer transfer window.
According to a report by Football Insider, Jack Grealish might not have a future at Manchester City beyond the summer transfer window. The 39-cap English international has fallen in the pecking order at the Etihad, and he is frustrated after becoming a bit-part player for the Premier League champions.
Jack Grealish and his Manchester City misery
Jack Grealish has seen his progress come to a stuttering halt since joining Manchester City from Aston Villa in a deal worth £100 million in August 2021. The Englishman arrived at the Etihad with a burgeoning reputation, having been a pivotal figure for his boyhood club while serving them as the captain for several seasons.
However, the 29-year-old has struggled to stamp his authority at Manchester City, even though he has shown flashes of brilliance in the last three and a half years. Grealish has been in and out of the starting lineup in the 2024/25 season, not even completing 1,500 minutes of game time across 26 appearances in all competitions while chipping in with two goals and five assists.
Savinho has enjoyed his breakthrough at Manchester City in his debut season at the Etihad, and Omar Marmoush has hit the ground running since arriving from Eintracht Frankfurt. So, the 39-cap English international might not have a way back into the starting lineup as an undisputed first-choice starter.
What next?
Jack Grealish does not have a shortage of suitors pursuing his signature. Recent reports have claimed that European bigwigs like Borussia Dortmund and Inter Milan are keen on signing the Manchester City outcast. In addition, Premier League clubs have also shown interest in the former Aston Villa captain.
However, a move abroad might be on the cards for the 29-year-old Englishman instead of joining another Premier League club. Meanwhile, Manchester City will have no qualms about parting ways with Grealish in the summer transfer window. In addition, the player is increasingly frustrated with his situation at the Etihad.
With several well-known clubs showing interest in Grealish, it will not be surprising to see him join a European bigwig in the summer transfer window. It will be interesting to see where the versatile English attacker lands when he leaves Manchester City.
