Pep Guardiola has pushed the 29-year-old down the hierarchy, and he may want to relocate in order to salvage his future. Man City is pushing for a spot in the top four after having a terrible 2024–25 campaign. In the summer they might be prepared to make some big choices and let go of some of their top earners.
In 2025, Grealish has hardly been seen. At an estimated cost of £100 million, he moved from Aston Villa to City in 2021. He was instrumental in the team’s success, helping it win three Premier League titles, the FA Cup, and the Champions League.
The Man City winger, however, has lost favor with Guardiola’s team and has had difficulty securing a spot in the starting lineup on a regular basis. Additionally, he has been left out of Thomas Tuchel’s team.
The Sunday Mirror claims that the Rossoneri would rather sign Grealish on loan in anticipation of a long-term deal. But they would also look at a long-term contract at £40 million, which Italian sources say City would be willing to take.
Man City fighter Guardiola wants gone
According to TEAMtalk, Grealish could be sold by Man City during the summer transfer season. The defending Premier League champions would try to recover as much as the £100 million they paid on him, according to our sources.
Sources have confirmed that AC Milan and Newcastle United are interested in signing the 29-year-old in the summer, while his former team, Aston Villa, is also keeping a close eye on his situation.
According to sources who spoke to TEAMtalk, Grealish, who wants to play at the greatest level possible, has also been linked to Chelsea.
According to Didi Hamman, a former midfielder for Man City, Grealish ought to depart if Guardiola remains in charge. Despite Grealish’s contract with Etihad Stadium expiring in 2027, it seems that City is prepared to let him go if they can receive a good price.
However, if he wishes to stay playing in the Premier League or elsewhere, he might have to cut back on his £300,000 weekly salary.
