It is expected that the England international, 25, will move to Etihad Stadium when he returns from holiday “next week”. Villa have tried to keep hold of their talisman with the offer of a double-your-money contract. But he has his heart set on joining Pep Guardiola’s champions and now it is a matter of the two club’s agreeing the fee. Grealish is keen to leave Villa on good terms, the source explained, due to his relationship with his boyhood club. https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-jack-grealish-set-to-join-man-city-next-week-from-aston-villa/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is sacrificing the multi-millionaire you love for the billionaire. The millionaire owns a letter ‘E’ printing business though, and there’s a good chance it’s about to blow up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just can't see it Nothing surprises me in Football these days. As I've also noted before, he seems the type that loves the high, flash life and celebrity status. Wouldn't surprise me if he sees his future in London/Manchester. Just the vibes I've always gotten from him. Also wasn't necessarily loving the little digs about us not having any set piece takers etc etc. Anyway I'm probably just a bit wound up right now.

sheepyvillian Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Why would Citeh put a bid in unless they have been given some encouragement? I think this could have an ending similar to " The Champ ". Buckets and buckets of tears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunderball Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 (edited) It would be really unfortunate if he left now of all times. I can’t work out if there is a release clause but assume there isn’t, but even if there was it would be down to the player to move or not, it wouldn’t happen against his will and the club certainly don’t want or need to sell. If there isn’t a release clause, I would fully expect the owners/management to put their foot down and say to Jack the timing isn’t right for the club, lets review next summer. Levy does it, why not us? Or you put an incredible figure down (say £150m and say to Jack, fair enough, this is compensation, you can go). This is actually the most damaging time to leave us barring the relegation fight times - the club has its best chance for at least 20 years to break into the elite end of the game, and frankly stay in it, at that point the door is opened to a greater wealth of talent and his departure would not be as painful, and our owners can fully exploit that opportunity should it arise. He is in a new improved deal and committed to the club and cause stating some very Delph-esque sentiment about his place in the project, his club etc. He is also our Captain, that should mean more to him than most. As an alleged fan he must see that getting us to the CL places is a massive deal for the club and he would be setting us back for personal gain. The worst thing for me is that Man City are utterly classless, and are part of the shameless European Super League set who stuck two fingers up to the whole game. How quickly that is forgotten when money is being waved around. If he goes it will be the bitterest departure of them all, a real mercenary move, and frankly he would be the worst of the lot and even though I never boo departed players (pantomime or heart felt) I would happily boo him when he faces us.

Im not… Im a Villa fan, not a football fan… and anyone that doesn’t leave under: “The Mellberg Rule” or “The Albrighton/Weimann/Merson Rule” or ”The Petrov/Laursen Rule” gets no well wishes from me 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
