In recent months, Jack Grealish has been going through a difficult period on the football fields of England and Europe. Less fit and less successful, the England international was downgraded to Manchester City, where Savinho notably passed him in the hierarchy of wingers. But the former Aston Villa player was able to count on the support of his club and his coach, Pep Guardiola. At the beginning of January, the Catalan technician made a long media outing about the 29-year-old footballer.

“I fought a lot for him, I fought a lot for him to be here. And I know he can do it because I've seen it. I saw his level and I want him to do it in every training and every match. Otherwise, is there anyone in this room who thinks Savinho doesn't deserve to play? No, he deserves it. That's why I play him, because he produces. That's why he played. I would really like to play football. I was an excellent football player. You don't remember this, but I was a football player and I would like to play. I can't. If I don’t perform well, I can’t.”
Grealish has 5 clubs after him
Strong words which were visibly heard by the player purchased for €110 million in 2021. Mute for a year in front of goals, he found the net again on January 11 during the 8-0 victory during the third round of the FA Cup against Salford. A meeting during which he also delivered 2 assists. In total, he has scored 1 goal and given 4 assists in 21 appearances in all competitions this season, including 11 as a starter. If there is still a long way to go to find a place in the eleven and his best level, the Englishman took an important first step in January with this goal.

A goal that can serve as a trigger. This is what the Citizens want, they who saw the player in full blues. Despite his decline in form, 5 stables are ready to welcome him this winter. The Sun reveals that Manchester United, Tottenham and Newcastle are interested in him in the Premier League. Abroad, Inter and Borussia Dortmund are also under the spell of the player, whose market value is estimated at €45 million according to the specialist site transfer market. But there is no doubt that the Skyblues would ask for much more money in the event of a sale. Which a priori does not seem to be in their plans, nor in those of Grealish at the moment…
