Jack Grealish’s time at Man City appears to be drawing to a close, with the Premier League giants reportedly ready to accept a cut-price 40-million-pound fee.
This is just three years after paying a British record 100 million pounds to sign him from Aston Villa.
According to Manchester Evening News, City are prepared to take a staggering 60-million-pound loss on the 28-year-old winger, who is now firmly out of Pep Guardiola’s first-team plans.
Grealish, who earns 300,000 pounds a week and is contracted until 2027, is understood to be weighing his options carefully and is willing to wait for the right move.
Interest in Grealish remains high, with Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United both monitoring his situation, while Serie A champions Napoli and even former club Aston Villa are also being linked with a potential swoop.
Despite his pedigree and 39 England caps, Grealish’s last two seasons have failed to live up to expectations. Injuries have limited him to just 20 Premier League appearances last season, in which he managed only one goal and one assist.
His best campaign in sky blue came during City’s historic treble-winning season, where he featured in 50 matches and contributed 16 goals and assists combined. However, since then, his influence has waned considerably.
