No-one wants Jack Grealish! Man City could be forced to loan out £50m-rated outcast amid dearth of transfer options

<p>Grealish, who arrived at the Etihad Stadium from Aston Villa in 2021 for a then-British record £100m ($136m), now appears to be at a crossroads in his City career. The 28-year-old has two years left on his current deal, which earns him a substantial £300,000 per week, but interest in the forward has yet to materialise into any concrete offers, prompting City to explore a temporary move, as revealed by <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/football/2025/jun/13/manchester-city-may-loan-out-jack-grealish-having-received-no-offers" target="_blank"><em>The Guardian.</em></a></p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Pep Guardiola’s side are in the United States to prepare for their upcoming Club World Cup clash against Moroccan champions Wydad Casablanca, and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/jack-grealish-return-to-aston-villa-pep-guardiola-axes-england-outcast-from-man-city-club-world-cup-squad/blt475818b981eadab4" target="_blank">Grealish is absent from City’s travelling contingent</a> that landed in Boca Raton. Club sources indicate that while City are not actively pushing the player out, they are open to discussions. However, the £50m price tag remains firm.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>A potential return to Aston Villa is now under serious discussion, according to the <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-14805143/Aston-Villa-transfer-news-Rashford-Grealish-Rogers-Kamara-Martinez-PSR.html" target="_blank"><em>Daily Mail.</em></a> However, the West Midlands club are unlikely to commit to a full transfer <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/jack-grealish-dream-aston-villa-return-not-off-table-man-city/bltc3007a228ef38b7a#cs3f7af0af2608336b" target="_blank">given the financial weight of Grealish’s current salary</a>. A temporary deal would allow Villa to bring back their former star without shouldering the full cost of his wages.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Once the centrepiece of a record-breaking transfer, Grealish now finds himself in a situation where a loan move is his most likely path to regular football. Whether that means a return to Villa Park or a move abroad remains to be seen, but it is clear that change is coming for the English star. </p>
