**Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has revealed that he is unsure about the future of Jack Grealish.**
The England international has spent this season on loan at Everton, where he has had a positive impact. However, a stress fracture in his foot has left the attacker ruled out for the rest of the season.
It seems that the Toffees will not trigger a £50 million option to turn the loan deal permanent, and so Grealish could be returning to the Etihad in the coming weeks.
“I don’t know,” Guardiola answered about Grealish’s future. “I want the best for Jack.
“I know his impact was really good. Played the minutes that he had in the treble season.
“In the treble season he was extraordinary and after that maybe I didn’t help him or maybe we could not reach the level that he had.
“He needs to play game, game, game. At Everton now he had an injury, but hopefully he can recover and the next season he can continue to play.”
Despite his season being cut short and effectively ending with his injury in January, the winger has still made more league starts this season than he did across the previous two years with City. He has also recorded more goal contributions in the current season than he did in the two prior campaigns combined.
“It depends on him,” the Catalan insisted on the possibility of Grealish returning to his best. “It depends absolutely on him. The quality is no doubt, everything is there.”
