Grealish has struggled for form since playing a key role in the Citizen's treble-winning season in 2022/23. The winger has started just one game in the league this term, and his participation in the Club World Cup is now in doubt. Thomas Tuchel has also omitted the ex-Aston Villa star from his latest England squad.

Grealish has been open with his struggles for motivation after his role in the all-conquering Treble-winning side. Even with this dip, the winger will be in high demand should he come available in the summer.

Perhaps moving on to pastures new is exactly the impetus the immensely talented Grealish needs to rekindle his passion for the game. Should he move on, it will be for a significantly recued fee compared to the Premier League record £100m Manchester City paid for his services in 2021.
