Grealish will leave Man City after a difficult period. |
The Telegraph reports that Grealish no longer has a chance of continuing his association with the Etihad Stadium team. Despite being a £100 million signing, the most expensive in Manchester City's history, Grealish's future at Etihad is becoming uncertain. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano added: "Grealish is no longer in Pep Guardiola's long-term plans."
A host of clubs, including at least three Premier League teams and five major European clubs, are closely monitoring the situation of the 1995-born star. Tottenham and Everton have emerged as two of the leading contenders in the race to sign Grealish. In addition, several major European clubs, along with clubs from Saudi Arabia, have also expressed interest in the former Aston Villa captain.
Man City are willing to let Grealish go, but the price will not be less than £50 million. Another factor that makes many teams hesitant is the enormous salary of £300,000 per week that the England international receives.
Tottenham are currently looking for a left winger and see Grealish as a key piece in their rebuilding plans under Thomas Frank. Meanwhile, Everton only want to loan Grealish and are asking Man City to share a portion of his salary.
Aston Villa, Grealish's former club, has also been mentioned as a potential destination. However, they haven't made any concrete moves yet due to financial issues. Newcastle have almost withdrawn from the race as Antony Gordon and Harvey Barnes have already shown impressive form.

This marks the end for Grealish at the Etihad Stadium. |
Despite playing a major role in helping Man City win the historic treble in the 2022/23 season, Grealish gradually lost his place in the starting lineup. Last season, his form declined and he was frequently benched, culminating in his exclusion from the squad for the FA Cup final.
In the 2024/25 season, Grealish only scored 1 goal and provided 1 assist in the Premier League, leading Guardiola to exclude him from his long-term plans. Kevin De Bruyne faced a similar situation, being left out of the starting lineup, while key players like Kyle Walker and John Stones could also leave Man City in the near future.
To rebuild their squad, Man City successfully signed Tijjani Reijnders from AC Milan for £46.2 million, Rayan Cherki from Lyon for £30 million, and Rayan Ait-Nouri from Wolves for £34 million.
