Zhan_Zhuang Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 If they are bidding I'd have thought Grealish is interested in going. A shame if that's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted July 30, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted July 30, 2021 hmmmm... The positives are that no release clause is mentioned. The negatives are that if we have been negotiating with Man City and we have told them we wanted £100m and they have now offered it. You would have to assume Jack has indicated he wants to leave.

No indication we’d accept or want £100m. It’s their opening bid, no suggestive of what we have said - if anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Steero113 Posted July 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 30, 2021 If the club rejects this and any follow up bids and Jack stays it is a statement bigger than any transfer you can make. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Silvers Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 (edited) I guess the citeh interest is genuine then but they can shove 100m right up they're arses. 250m and cherry pick they're squad is fair or **** off Edited July 30, 2021 by Phil Silvers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's always going to consider it - it's an amazing opportunity. Still not convinced he will go - a lot will depend on the advice he's being given/seeking. Hopefully not just from his agent! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomav84 Posted July 30, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted July 30, 2021 Gregg Evans always said we'd accept 100m. Reputation on the line squire... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Its is a lot of money but I doubt we could get anyone as good as Grealish to come to Villa even with a huge transfer budget. Plus every club will add £10-20 million on their asking fee. We have to reject it. If Grealish through his agent then says no I want to leave then we have had it.

M_Afro Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I never thought City would go as high as £100m! That’s an interesting turn in events. I assume that we will tell them to do one but how far will they be prepared to go? Not even £150m is enough at this stage in our progression. He needs to stay for at least one more season.

est1874 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Confirmation once and for all that there is no release clause. So those who were trying to convince everyone else that it definitely existed can shush now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don’t need it, we couldn’t replace Jack and what he gives to the team right now… we don’t have to accept or be dictated to by other clubs. Lets see what NSWE’s stance is… Jack is on a long contract and being offered a better one, he can’t force a move should he wish to. Hopefully, he’s more than happy to stay and lead us forwards… If he really does love the club so much, I would think he couldn’t bear the thought of playing against us in another team’s colours… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 City, like with bidding for Kane, can try but doesn’t mean they will be successful. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
