Jack Grealish looks set to leave Manchester City in the summer and the good news for the England international is that plenty of clubs are interested in signing him.
Tottenham Hotspur are keen on signing Grealish — a club the Englishman almost signed for in 2018 during his time at Aston Villa.
Grealish is on Newcastle and Aston Villa’s radar as well ahead of next season.
The 29-year-old will be hoping that sooner rather than later, his future is finalised.
Man City star Jack Grealish’s wages are a problem for Tottenham
Jack Grealish will be aware that unless he becomes a regular starter next season, his chances of being named in England’s squad for the 2026 World Cup could be remote.
Recently, Pep Guardiola suggested Grealish could leave as well.

However, Football Transfers have reported that while Grealish is “open” to the idea of signing for Tottenham, especially after they secured Champions League qualification by winning the Europa League.
Spurs’ technical director Johan Lange, who was previously at Aston Villa and masterminded Grealish’s £100 million move to Manchester City still shares a strong bond with the player.
However, the three-time Premier League winner’s weekly wages of £300,000 could make negotiations complex between City and Tottenham — considering the report mentions that their highest earner, Heung-min Son banks £190,000-a-week.
Furthermore, Manchester City are open to letting the decorated winger leave for a fee in the region of ÂŁ38 million to ÂŁ43 million.
Grealish is more likely to sign for another club over Tottenham
Grealish might have to take a pay cut if he is well and truly keen on moving to Tottenham.
However, AC Milan could sign Grealish instead of Tottenham.
Journalist Dean Jones revealed: “Meanwhile, Jack Grealish has been linked [to Tottenham] but that feels far-fetched given his price tag. AC Milan are a more realistic suitor. If there’s a gap in their squad, they’re interested.”
“And for Grealish, it might actually be the perfect time to test himself abroad. He could thrive in Serie A’s rhythm.”
Considering Manchester City struck a loan deal with AC Milan in January to offload Kyle Walker, perhaps they could do the same by letting them have a stab at signing Grealish.
