Man City want to shift Jack Grealish ASAP! Transfer deadline set amid determination to get rid of £100m man

City are making a renewed effort to move Grealish on after leaving him out of their Cub World Cup squad to allow him to focus on finding a new club. They had hoped to sort out his future by the beginning of pre-season but that is looking increasingly tricky, report GiveMeSport.

Finding a club that is prepared to meet the terms City are after is a stumbling block, with the report claiming no club has yet come close to producing an acceptable offer. Pep Guardiola's side are open to a permanent or loan deal, with Grealish keen to play in Europe as he aims to rebuild his career.

A call-up for next summer's World Cup is on Grealish's mind, with the former Aston Villa midfielder yet to be selected by Three Lions head coach Thomas Tuchel. Regular football is a priority if he is to re-establish himself on the international stage.

The report states that Newcastle have been regularly linked with Grealish but are yet to make any contact or an offer. Napoli and AC Milan are interested but have other options.
