Manchester City prepare mega offer for Jack Grealish
When Manchester City set their eyes on a player, more often than not, they force their way into getting him. This time they have set their sights on Jack Grealish, and the club are working hard to cut a deal with Aston Villa for the attacking midfielder.
According to the football transfer rumours in British media, Manchester City are preparing mega offer for Jack Grealish.
The 25-year-old banged in 7 goals and provided 12 assists in 27 matches this season across all fronts showcasing just how influential he has been in the final third.
He is considered to be one of the best midfielders in England.
Grealish has represented England at Under-21 level, winning 7 caps and scoring 2 goals, before making his senior international debut in September 2020. As a member of England national football team, Grealish won 5 caps.
His impressive performances this season have apparently caught the eye of some of Europe’s big clubs.
Pep Guardiola wants to sign a new attacking midfielder and Grealish is one of the names at the top of his wishlist. He is a known admirer of the player and is reportedly keen on the idea of bringing him this summer.
The Aston Villa midfielder is a traditional number ten who will add creativity and technique in the final third for Pep Guardiola’s side.
According to the report, “Manchester City are willing to break the £100m barrier to sign Aston Villa captain Jack Grealish. The Daily Mail says Grealish has long been admired by Pep Guardiola and City’s manager wants the 25-year-old at the hub of what he hopes he will become the second great team of his reign in Manchester. Villa rewarded Grealish last September with a lucrative new contract and the club captain still has four years to run on his deal. His importance to Dean Smith’s side is huge and, as such, they would not entertain selling their local hero for anything less than a new British transfer record.”
