“Chelsea could be an outside bet with Gallagher possibly going, you could see him playing that midfield role. He’d be more effective there. He’s got vision, he can see things, he’s good at give and go. But he’s stuck on that wing, you’re thinking there is surely more in his locker.
“So if I was a top club looking for a winger, I’d be looking at players ahead of Grealish.”
According to football. london, Edu and Arteta are intent on bolstering the Gunners’ ranks before August 30, aiming for a third consecutive Premier League title bid.
While a central midfielder tops their wishlist, football. london has learned that the North London outfit is also scouting for a forward-line player.
Grealish could provide the Gunners team a winning mindset and be a huge upgrade over Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard. If Arteta thinks it appropriate, the former Aston Villa player may even start in Arsenal’s midfield, perhaps in one of the No. 8 spots.
“The same. Nothing changed; what matters is how you perform, and we require him. I emphasised from the beginning that he is essential to our squad because of a unique quality. He is essential to us. That is dependent upon him. I’m hoping he can have a strong last month.”
According to sources, Grealish’s status may be jeopardised by the anticipated arrival of 20-year-old Savio from Troyes, another team in the City Football Group, given the intense battle for spots at City.
With Jeremy Doku also in Pep Guardiola’s squad, Jack Grealish could see his playing time dwindle even more if Savio remains at City for the 2024/25 season instead of heading out on another loan.
“Despite many proposals, Manchester City decide to bring him back as Savio can be an important player,” Fabrizio Romano revealed on Facebook. “Formal steps expected to follow after Copa America.”
Grealish’s limited action last season saw him miss out on England’s Euro 2024 squad, selected by Gareth Southgate, which might make him consider a move away from Manchester in the coming summer. Arsenal could potentially be a new destination.
For many Villa fans – it’s time for him to come home to B6. whether or not that is realistic or not, is another argument entirely, and everyone has a different opinion on it.
The former Villa captain has won seven pieces of silverware at Man City since joining them in the summer of 2021, including three Premier League titles and the Champions League. But after suffering the devastating blow following a stop-start league campaign, where does Grealish go from here?
Can Villa afford him? Would they even want him? One player who knows the true value of a flair player out wide, is none other than former England winger Chris Waddle.
Speaking to Betway, he stated: “If you’re buying Grealish, are you buying him as a winger? Tottenham like pace, Jack is not blessed with pace. You’d have to play him in a number 10 role, and they already have James Maddison for that.
“So Spurs no, and I wouldn’t say Arsenal either. Liverpool play a very high tempo game, so I’m not sure about there too. What you’re looking at is, would you play Grealish as a winger or a number 10, or midfield player? If I was buying him I’d be looking to play him in the middle. He does a job on the wing, but wingers create, get round the back, and Jack can’t get round the back.
Yes, he provides the side balance and doesn’t give up the ball or take many chances. Nonetheless, I believe I would be considering playing him in that three-pointer in the middle of the park, against his former team, Aston Villa. Regarding Newcastle, they play fast and apply pressure, so I’m not sure. He needs to join a team that wants to use him as a midfielder, in my opinion.
With Gallagher potentially leaving, Chelsea might be an outside bet since he might fill the midfield role. There, he would be more useful. He can perceive things, has good vision, and is skilled at giving and taking. However, since he’s caught on that wing, you’re probably assuming there are more.
