Manchester City FLOP Jack Grealish leaves Man City this morning to join shocking Premier League Club as Guardiola makes key De Bruyne, Ederson transfer decisions

Erling Haaland, Jack Grealish, Julian Alvarez, Kalvin Phillips, Ederson with the Man City badge
Joao Cancelo: Sell
Cancelo obviously does not fit Guardiola’s intentions, but sadly for him, he cannot seem to find a team that both wants and can pay him. Barcelona at least wants him, but whatever money they come upon behind the sofa will probably be used elsewhere.

Where Cancelo finishes will be fascinating to watch. Man City most certainly hopes for a Saudi Arabian bid.

Sergio Gomez: Selling left-back Spanish Gomez is going back to his own nation to represent Real Sociedad. Romano Fabrizio remarked this.

Joshua Wilson-Esbrand: Keep in mind
Wilson-Esbrand most certainly has a role in Glasgow’s team with Gomez going, but a small one. Fair dos should they choose to loan him out. They won’t create any enemies if they want to sell him. Do as you choose, fellas.

Kalvin Phillips – Sell Kalvin, kindly find a new club for the sake of everything that is sacred. Not West Ham, either.

Rodri: Maintain
Man City would be doing everyone a service by moving Rodri, so they will never in a million years sell the finest midfielder in the world this summer. Nobody would even be bold enough to probe.

Maximo Perrone: Keep on
Phillips can hand the bib to little Perrone instead of the torch. That seat on the bench needs someone to inhabit, buddy.

Mateo Kovacic – Maintain
Although there are more outstanding midfield players available, Kovacic is a great Man City team member.

Matheus Nunes: Keep on
After a somewhat disappointing Etihad debut, young Nunes will be given the benefit of the doubt.

Kevin de Bruyne: It makes no sense Keep Man City cashing in on De Bruyne, who has one year left on his contract. Though it appears like the Belgian will go to the United States or Saudi Arabia in a years’ time, a fresh agreement has never been ruled out. From the latter this summer, there is apparently much curiosity.

James McAtee: Salesperson
McAtee is not going to start showing up regularly under Guardiola, very clearly. At a Premier League team in the bottom half, though, he could

Oscar Bobb – Loan
Norwegian brilliance Bobb might be a career game-changer for City but a year somewhere working on his art; he can already significantly contribute. He is far too good and too bright to be sitting on the bench most weeks.

Bernardo Silva: Maintaining
Every summer there is talk about Silva, generally involving Barcelona and Paris Saint- Germain. This year is exactly the same.

Rumours of a release clause abound, but in fact Barca would have signed for them a while back had he not been so skint. City will not be expected to stand in Silva’s path if they can gather the money. Still, he is a really valuable and outstanding player for the Citizens, and his sale is definitely not advised.

Phil Foden: Keep
The Season Player of the Premier League shouldn’t leave Manchester City. Clearly, not f**king.

Jack Grealish—Sell
Pep has brought in Jeremy Doku and Savio to (probably for the latter) fulfill the expressive position on the left we expected Grealish to occupy following his British record £100m signing from Aston Villa in 2021. Rather than the deft, risk-taking winger we came to love at his last team, the England international has been limited under Guardiola, who has made such a gifted footballer another cog in the machine.

Although Grealish was the Clamour King for England at past events, he missed England’s Euro 2024 roster and scarcely anybody could understand why Gareth Southgate would act in such manner. The angriest of the lot will have been his family, friends, the player himself, and Hellmann’s will.

Grealish has to leave City to once more fly his wings. Though the moment feels good, he is winning many of pots and pans and significantly helped the club to win the Treble in 2022/23. And he is more than competent of going into any other Premier League starting XI.

Though his rookie year in Manchester was erratic, Jeremy Doku—keep the take-on king—is clearly a highly gifted youngster.

Julian Alvarez: Keep
Alvarez, the World Cup champion, and Man City are correctly not attracting any attention, hence there has been a lot of buzz over their future. Alvarez wants to be the major guy, same as Gabriel Jesus departed for Arsenal in 2022. That gets challenging when Erling Haaland is your teammate.

Alvarez may wish to be one of the first names on the teamsheet every week, but he still played 54 times overall last season and had a great run on the team when De Bruyne was sidelined between August and January. He seized set-piece responsibility and performed rather brilliantly. From the 54 Argentine appearances, he started 39 times—31 in the Premier League.

Noise has quieted recently; Alvarez seems to be staying at City, which is the appropriate result for the player and team.
