Jack Grealish is expected to be omitted from the Manchester City squad for the FIFA Club World Cup.

The future of the 29-year-old at the Etihad Stadium is unclear as we head into the summer transfer window, with a growing sense that he would benefit from a move before next season.

Grealish is likely to attract interest from clubs across Europe, who could provide him with regular football and a fresh start.

Whether his reported £300,000-per-week wages will prove prohibitive for any potential deal remains to be seen, whether on loan or permanent.

Meanwhile, City have agreed a €55m (£46.3m) deal with AC Milan for Dutch midfielder Tijjani Reijnders, and are also in talks to sign Lyon forward Rayan Cherki and Wolves left-back Rayan Ait-Nouri.

According to sources, Grealish is keeping an open mind about his future while the extended 32-team Club World Cup runs from 14 June to 13 July in the United States.

The former Aston Villa star joined City in 2021 for a then-British record fee of £100 million, becoming a key part of Pep Guardiola's treble-winning side in 2022–23.

In total, he has won three Premier League titles, an FA Cup, a Champions League title and a Club World Cup with the club.

However, he has struggled for regular playing time over the past two seasons, starting just seven league games in 2024–25.

A lack of playing time has also seen Grealish lose his place in the England squad. He was not selected for Euro 2024, and with a year to go until the 2026 World Cup, he will likely need to play more regularly for his club to stand any chance of forcing his way into Thomas Tuchel's plans.
