Story Highlights:

Jack Grealish’s inconsistent performances at Manchester City have sparked interest from Everton, who are exploring a potential summer transfer deal.

After a trophy-less season, Manchester City aims to rebound strongly with renewed leadership and experience, while Grealish’s future remains uncertain.

Jack Grealish could be leaving Manchester City after struggling to perform consistently in recent times. The left-winger is one of the players that the Premier League giants are keen to sell this summer.

Everton open talks for Jack Grealish

As per Sky Sports Premier League, Everton have approached Manchester City for a potential deal to acquire the left-winger. However things are at the preliminary stage.

Grealish joined Manchester City from Aston Villa for a massive £100 million transfer fee in August 2021. This made him the most expensive Premier League at the time. The left-winger was highly expected to improve the attacking ability of Manchester City, considering the price-tag.

However, after four years, he has struggled to live up to the mark. His struggle to score goals made him lose playing minutes in recent seasons. He was also dropped from Manchester City's squad for the FIFA Club World Cup.

This decision fueled rumors regarding his place in Pep Guardiola's side and his future at the Etihad. While he remains contracted at City till June 2027, he could be sold if a good offer comes in this summer.

Jack Grealish played 157 games for Manchester City across all competitions and amassed only 17 goals and 23 assists.

Phil Foden thinks that he and the rest of the team wants to come back strong after Manchester City's struggles last season. He also claimed that the Citizens have the necessary experience to redeem themselves.

In an interaction with BBC, Foden expressed positivity that Pep Guardiola side will make amends nest season. He also said that Bernardo Silva's captaincy could help the side improve, saying:

"I think everyone wants to make up for last season, we all want to come to our best and winning titles, we have got a lot of experience in the dressing room. With Bernardo [Silva] being captain, hopefully he can push the lads on. We have got all the experience and we have done it before.

 

 

Last season was very disappointing for the Premier League giants as they struggled to be consistent in every competition, ending the season without a single title. They lost the FA Cup final against Crystal Palace and finished as the second runners-up in the Premier League.
