The Premier League continues to leave several important names on the way out, and one of them has made headlines due to a decisive decision made by his current coach. He isn't part of his plans for next season. The player, aware of this situation, has already started to make moves on his own, looking for a destination for the future.
The footballer's entourage, who don't want to keep living in an uncomfortable situation, have already set things in motion. He has been offered to two major LaLiga clubs: FC Barcelona and Atlético de Madrid, and his idea is clear. He needs a new setting where he can regain prominence and feel important on the field.
At Barça, his name has sparked some internal debate, but there are members of the sporting management who believe he could be a strategic addition. The English player has great experience in important matches, he adapts well to different attacking schemes, and, in addition, he'd be very keen to join the Catalan side.
Simeone goes after Grealish
Meanwhile, Atlético have also taken note of the situation, although they know his salary is high. There is confidence that an agreement could be reached if the English club accepts a loan with a purchase option. Diego Pablo Simeone values his dribbling and his ability to break lines in attack; he isn't the usual profile the Argentine manages, but he could give him options in the final third.
Reports coming from England point to a complete break with his coach; the relationship is completely deteriorated. To the point that the Catalan coach doesn't even want to see him in training; the decision has been made and the club won't put up obstacles to his departure. They consider it a necessary move to lighten the wage bill and make room for new signings.
Flick sees him as a good signing
In addition, several expert voices in England have pointed out that this player would fit Barça like a glove. His style fits perfectly with what Hansi Flick is looking for to strengthen his attack; he can play on both wings, he has a lot of dribbling, final pass, and quite a bit of goal. It's a profile that's currently scarce in the Catalan squad and could raise the offensive level of the roster.
We're talking, no more and no less, about Jack Grealish; the English international already knows he isn't in Pep Guardiola's plans. His time at Manchester City has been full of ups and downs, and now he has decided to bring his spell at the Etihad Stadium to an end; he wants to start from scratch. Both Barça and Atlético are keeping a close eye on this unexpected market opportunity.
At 29 years old, Jack Grealish is looking to recover the version that made him one of the most desired wingers on the continent; the Premier League has become too small for him. He needs a change of scenery urgently, and LaLiga could be the perfect destination for him to redeem himself and shine again. Simeone and Flick are keeping an eye on the future of the player who came up through Aston Villa and who managed to win over Pep Guardiola.
