Just days ago, Jack Grealish was rumoured to be considering his future at Manchester City after struggling for consistency over the last 12 months, but Sean Walsh and Graeme Bailey of 90min say he’s committed to staying in the North-West.
Vital Man City questioned what club would be willing to pay his £100k transfer and £200k-per-week wages when his form has been inconsistent, so Grealish was never going to be sold just one year after his move. Pep Guardiola knows the 27-year-old can get better too, so he’s unlikely to give up so soon.

Grealish has made 45 appearances in all competitions, scoring just seven goals with four assists. Last season, he managed only three goals and three assists in 26 Premier League games. This campaign, he’s scored just once in six outings and hasn’t set the place alight in games, so his future was being speculated about.
It can take players some time to acclimatise to Guardiola’s philosophy, however, so City won’t make rash decisions on their record transfer. Grealish is adamant that his manager is happy with his performances too.
