Latest Jack Grealish to Tottenham transfer update emerges as he could now leave Manchester City in the summer

Jack Grealish to Tottenham? Latest Transfer Update as Man City Exit Looms

Jack Grealish has long been linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur, dating back to his early days at Aston Villa. Now, with uncertainty surrounding his future at Manchester City, Spurs may have another opportunity to sign the 29-year-old playmaker this summer.

Grealish’s Struggles at Manchester City

This season has been one of the most challenging in Grealish’s career, with the midfielder making just six Premier League starts. As a result, speculation is growing that he may be deemed surplus to requirements at the Etihad Stadium.

Tottenham were interested in signing Grealish during the winter transfer window. However, his hefty contract and reported contentment with life in the north-west made negotiations difficult.

Spurs’ Renewed Interest in Grealish

With just two years left on his contract, Tottenham could reignite their interest in the England international this summer. While Grealish boasts three Premier League titles, his overall spell at City has been underwhelming. Pundit Jamie Carragher has even highlighted how his stock has fallen since playing a crucial role in City’s historic treble-winning campaign in 2023.

According to GiveMeSport, there is internal support at Tottenham for a move, provided City lower their valuation compared to previous transfer windows.

Potential Roadblocks to a Deal

One major stumbling block remains Grealish’s wages. The midfielder currently earns £300,000 per week at City (Sportrac), significantly higher than Spurs’ top earners—Heung-min Son (£190,000 per week) and James Maddison (£170,000 per week) (Capology).

For a deal to materialize, either Grealish would need to take a significant pay cut, or Tottenham would have to break their wage structure, a decision that would not be taken lightly.

Would Grealish Fit Postecoglou’s System?

Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou values versatility in his players, and Grealish certainly offers that. The midfielder is capable of playing out wide, as a number 10, or even in a deeper midfield role.

However, given Tottenham’s financial structure and City’s potential asking price, securing Grealish’s signature will not be an easy task.

What’s Next?

With the summer transfer window approaching, all eyes will be on Manchester City’s stance and whether Tottenham—or another Premier League club—will make a move for Grealish.
