LONDON, England – Jack Grealish no dey part of Manchester City squad wey go face Fulham for di final Premier League game of di season. Dis one don raise plenty questions about wetin dey happen with im future.
Di 29-year-old forward no travel join di team go London, and im don only start seven games for di league dis term. Di season end, im score just one goal for Premier League, Champions League, and di FA Cup.
During di FA Cup final wey City lose to Crystal Palace, Grealish no play at all. E still no dey part of di squad wey manager Thomas Tuchel call for di upcoming England internationals. When BBC Match of di Day ask Pep Guardiola about why Grealish no dey play, im just talk say na “selection.”
Shay Given, wey don play goalkeeper for City, tell BBC Radio 5 Live say di “writing dey on di wall” for Grealish, suggesting wetin im go do next for im career.
Dis season don bad for City as dem no win any trophy for di first time in eight years, but if dem manage draw against Fulham, dem fit secure their place for di Champions League next season.
Guardiola cause wahala after City win Bournemouth last Tuesday when he talk say e no sure if e go fit manage all di players wey dey for im squad next season. Even though e later explain say na joke, im still maintain say e prefer to work with smaller group.
City currently get 32 players for dem official website, so we go expect plenty players go leave dem. But di big question be: will Grealish be among dem? Di player make big impact when City win di Treble last year, but im don struggle to find im form again this season.
Grealish don score just four Premier League goals for di last two seasons, and e don become used to dey sit down for bench. E join di club for £100 million from Aston Villa for 2021, but last Saturday, Guardiola prefer give Argentine teenager Claudio Echeverri di chance instead of Grealish.
Di lack of regular playing time don affect Grealish international prospects, as e no dey part of England Euro 2024 squad last summer. E remains to be seen if he go make am to City squad for di FIFA Club World Cup wey go start for di USA on June 14.
