Aston Villa are being backed to secure a sensational return for Manchester City star Jack Grealish in a deal that could be worth £60 million. The potential move, which has stirred excitement among Villa fans, could see Grealish rejoin his boyhood club, just a few years after his high-profile transfer to City.
Grealish left Aston Villa for Manchester City in the summer of 2021 in a then-record £100 million transfer, but recent reports suggest that a return to Villa Park could be on the cards. Pundits and former players have expressed their support for the deal, noting that Grealish’s return would be a “phenomenal” boost for Aston Villa as they continue to build on their impressive performances under manager Unai Emery.
The 28-year-old England international has had mixed fortunes at City, despite winning major trophies, including the Premier League and Champions League. However, a move back to Aston Villa could reignite his form and provide the playmaker with a fresh start in familiar surroundings.
A £60 million deal is being discussed, which would represent a significant investment for Villa, but many believe it would be well worth it given Grealish’s proven quality and connection with the club. Villa, who are aiming to challenge for European qualification and continue their upward trajectory, could benefit greatly from Grealish’s creativity and leadership on the pitch.
Grealish remains a beloved figure among Aston Villa supporters, and his return would likely be welcomed with open arms. If the deal materializes, it could be one of the standout moves of the upcoming transfer window, potentially reshaping Villa’s ambitions in the Premier League.
