Currently, Man City is competing in the FIFA Club World Cup, but attacking midfielder Jack Grealish has been removed from the squad by coach Pep Guardiola. This decision further raises doubts about Grealish's future at the Etihad.
In the previous season, the English player had many difficulties in finding opportunities to play. He was benched in the FA Cup final and was not even registered to play in the Premier League final.
The loss of his position in the England team towards the 2026 World Cup has further urged Grealish to soon find a new destination. Manchester City are said to be ready to let him go for £40 million, less than half of the money they spent to sign him four years ago.
Legend Rio Ferdinand advised Grealish: I recommend Jack Grealish play where he is happy. He needs to find happiness playing football and being in the first team.
Jack Grealish was a star. But now, he is not even considered for big moments and big matches. I want to see Jack smile again.
Tottenham and Aston Villa are currently very interested in Grealish. While the Roosters have just won the Europa League and have great ambitions, Aston Villa have the advantage of being Jack Grealish's team.
However, Ferdinand believes the England star should leave the Premier League. He said: "Villa would be a great choice for him. But if they don't sell people, where will Jack play? Marcus Rashford and Morgan Rogers.
If I were him, you know where I would go? Saudi Arabia. If I were Jack Grealish, I would go to Saudi Arabia, I would bury my feet in the sand. Or if not, Marseille or Napoli are also attractive options.
