Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou could be the man to get the best out of Jack Grealish if he leaves Manchester City.

The England international has seriously struggled for minutes at the Etihad this season in what has been a difficult spell in sky blue.

This has even seen Pep Guardiola leave the 29-year-old out of multiple matchday squads and sparked questions of a potential summer departure.

The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium emerge as a potential destination for Grealish, with Postecoglou potentially set to get the best out of him moving forward.

There is no doubt that Pep Guardiola has removed the majority of the ability that makes the former Aston Villa man so unique in the Premier League.

Throughout his best spells at Villa Park, the attacking midfielder was sensational on the ball, driving his side forward and contributing to goals and assists.

In recent times at City, Grealish has become known for a lack of threat, often passing backwards rather than taking chances going forward.

As a result, a switch to Tottenham could prove to be the perfect move for all parties as both look to have a much-improved season next time around.

Former Brentford and Leicester City boss Martin Allen believes Postecoglou could help get the best out of the Englishman despite his recent struggles at the Etihad.

Speaking exclusively to Tottenham News, Allen said: “There will be a lot of clubs looking at Jack Grealish.

“But he doesn’t look fit, he doesn’t look mobile and is without that speed and tenacity to score goals and make things happen.

“I’m not sure what his attitude is like around the training ground, so I’m not sure how he’ll resurrect his career.

“At the moment, he’s just not doing enough to get in the team. Working with Postecoglou could well be what he needs.

“*He likes ball players, players who glide with the ball, so maybe Postecoglou will want to take him on board at Tottenham to get his career going again.*“

Grealish could shine at Tottenham

There is a need for the Lilywhites to drastically improve their side moving into the new season after finishing 17th in the league.

This needs to change next campaign, and that could certainly be helped by the addition of Grealish, if Daniel Levy were to sanction a move.

If this went through in N17, the link-up with the likes of Dejan Kulusevski and James Maddison could prove to be excellent under Postecoglou.

This could all depend on the wage structure of the England international and his willingness to move, but the prospect of reviving his career will surely be something he can’t ignore.
