Manchester –
Pep Guardiola have a player he wants more than Lionel Messi or Harry Kane. He is Jack Grealish, winger Aston Villa.
Guardiola has just signed a new contract at City. The Catalan manager will last until 2023.
Now, Guardiola is ready to build City again. There are several players being targeted.
According to Independent, Guardiola has the main shooting players. Apart from Messi and Kane, who have long been rumored with The Citizens, there is also Grealish.
The British winger did appear to shine. Not only on Aston Villa, Grealish also became a star at England national team.
With Villa, Grealish has made 9 appearances, with a record of 5 goals and 6 assists. As for England, he has made 5 appearances, since his debut on August 8, 2020, and made 2 assists.
City’s determination to recruit Grealish won’t be easy. Because Villa reportedly set a high price for him, which is above 100 million pounds, or the equivalent of Rp. 1.8 trillion.
Reportedly, Guardiola has been asking questions Kevin de Bruyne about Grealish. The two players have just played in the national team, when Belgium faced England.
De Bruyne himself claimed to have given Guardiola permission to recruit him. Grealish is considered the right figure for City to take.
Additional ammunition seems to be needed by City, given that this season’s performance is still fickle. Until the 9th week, City are still stuck in 13th place Premier League standings.
