Jack Grealish is reportedly able to leave Manchester City this summer, with a potential return to Aston Villa being discussed. Grealish made a big-money move from his childhood club Aston Villa to Manchester City in 2021 for around £100 million.

While he had a strong season with Manchester City in 2022/23, Grealish has faced more challenges in the current campaign due to injuries and increased competition. Despite these setbacks, he made a comeback from injury recently, making a brief appearance in a match against Arsenal.

After the match, head coach Pep Guardiola was seen having a heated discussion with Grealish on the pitch, sparking rumors that the midfielder may be on his way out in the summer. Former Premier League defender Alan Hutton believes that Aston Villa would be interested in re-signing Grealish if the price was right but raises concerns about whether returning to his boyhood club would be the best move for him.

Despite the recent altercation with Guardiola, some analysts like Chris Sutton do not see it as a major issue, suggesting that it was more of a coach addressing a player’s mistakes rather than a public dressing down. The debate around Grealish’s future continues, with opinions divided on whether he should stay at Manchester City or make a return to Aston Villa.
