June 6, 2025 — Manchester
In a surprising move that has shocked many football fans and analysts alike, Jack Grealish and Manchester City have mutually agreed to part ways ahead of the upcoming season. The club and the player released a joint statement early Friday morning confirming the decision.
Grealish, who joined City in 2021 for a then-club-record fee, has been a key figure in Pep Guardiola’s squad, contributing with his creativity and flair on the wing and midfield. Despite flashes of brilliance and important performances, his time at the Etihad has been marked by inconsistent form and injury setbacks.
In the statement, Manchester City expressed their gratitude for Grealish’s efforts and professionalism, wishing him success in the next chapter of his career. Grealish himself thanked the club and fans for their support, hinting at a fresh challenge ahead.
Speculation is rife that Grealish is considering a return to the Premier League’s West Midlands region, with Aston Villa reportedly among interested parties. Other European clubs may also be monitoring the situation closely.
This development opens the door for Manchester City to reshape their squad ahead of the new campaign as Guardiola looks to build a team capable of sustaining their domestic dominance and European ambitions.
Further details about Grealish’s future club are expected in the coming weeks as the transfer window heats up.
