Newcastle United have been linked with a move for Jack Grealish of Manchester City this summer.
Pep Guardiola refused to give any guarantees about Jack Grealish''s future at Manchester City amid ongoing doubts about his future.
Newcastle United are among the clubs to have been linked with a move for the England international, who could leave the Etihad Stadium this summer having fallen down the pecking order.
Grealish has played just 605 minutes in the top flight this season for City and was left out of Thomas Tuchel's first England squad for the recent World Cup qualifiers against Albania and Latvia.
The 29-year-old, who only made the £100million move to Manchester from Aston Villa in 2021, is said to be available for a cut price fee this summer, with former club Villa also linked with a surprise swoop.
The playmaker has played every minute of City's FA Cup campaign to date, but the Mirror claims the writing will be on the wall for Grealish if he misses the clash with Bournemouth.
When asked by reporters if he expected Grealish to seek a new challenge this summer, Guardiola told the Mirror: “I am not going to talk individually about what happens in the future.

“The future is Bournemouth and then Leicester. I’m sorry, I’m not involved. When we don’t have any titles to fight for I can understand completely and they [the players] can do it privately with the club.
“It’s fine. But I’m not involved – and I don’t want to be involved because we are here to do our job and help Man City win games. That is what we have to do.”
Grealish was seen enjoying time at a social club in Washington with mates, and later that same night hitting the tiles in Newcastle, prompting further speculation linking him with a move to Tyneside.
That came after Chronicle Live reported that Grealish had been offered to Newcastle, last month, though the player's wages will likely be a stumbling block.
