August 5, 2021. Manchester City offers a record signature with Jack Grenish. The Skyblues signed a check for € 117.5 million to get attached to the services of English which then evolved at Aston Villa. “Manchester City is pleased to announce the signature of Jack Grenish for a six -year contract”could be read on the official press release. Almost 4 years later, the English international is no longer welcome among the Cityzens. Between his physical glitches and the meforms, not to mention his extrasportive slippages, the 29 -year -old footballer lost credit in the eyes of the Mancunians and his coach, the demanding Pep Guardiola. At the end of the season, the Spaniard had not summoned him for the final match against Fulham.
It should be ruled out for the World Cup
A choice he had assumed, while surrounding the door at the start of his player. “It was a question of selection. Of course, Jack must play … it's the truth. Jack is an incredible player who must play football every 3 days, which has not happened this season or last season. And he must do it, with us or elsewhere … There is nothing personal with Jack. I am the person who fought to come here and the person who fought so that he stays here this season and the following season. It was I who said I wanted Jack Grenish. Now he did not come because he did not come, but it is not something else. What will happen in the future is the responsibility of Txiki (Begiristain), Hugo (Viana) and his agents. ”
After having fought for him, Guardiola, who often defended him publicly, therefore seems to have gave up. Moreover, the former coach of Bayern Munich and FC Barcelona is preparing to make a strong choice concerning him. Yesterday, several English media announced that Grenalish should be excluded from the list of 35 Mancunian players selected to participate in the FIFA club World Cup this summer 2025. A strong signal sent to the footballer under contract until 2027 with the residents of Etihad Stadium. Invited to find a new point of fall, the player, who has also not experienced good times in selection for a year, is preparing for an eventful summer.
Clubs are already there for him
Especially since he aims to play the 2026 World Cup with Three Lions. A change of club is therefore envisaged in order to put the odds on its side to play this tournament. And although he knows a blow of soft, some clubs are interested in the idea of relaunching it. This Thursday, The Sun In cites 4. In the first place, there is his former club, Aston Villa. Still in the Premier League, Newcastle and Everton are also options. Finally, Naples, who will sign Kevin de Bruyne, is also cited as a potential point of fall. After City's decision to do without it a priori for the Club World Cup, there is no doubt that other stables will take the temperature. If City pushes for its departure, the idea is not to sell it off.
Skyblues have invested a lot and would like, ideally, not to lose too much money. The Sun evokes a price of € 48 million. You will also have to pay your imposing salary. Indeed, it currently receives just over 356,000 euros per week in City. This can cool possibly interested clubs. If a transfer is obviously favored by the Mancunian management, it also does not exclude lending its player for a season, in order to avoid having a too large workforce and allowing it to replay. The Sun Add that this is an option that could gain weight during this transfer market if its case is not set at the start of the summer. The Grealish soap opera is only just starting …
