Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola dismissed his concern for the active private life of Jack Grealish, but was less definitive when the future of the wing was discussed at the club.
Grealish has rarely developed his best form since completing a transfer of £ 100 to the club in the city in 2021, but he was reduced to a new Nadir in 2024. Could not score a single club goal Throughout the calendar year.
The 29 -year -old has found the net twice until 2025 but continues to seek the level of performance consistent than Guardiola demands.
These struggles on the pitch have been grouped by an intense focus on the actions of Grealish away from football. After the city Cup victory over Plymouth Last weekend, the England International was seen in several north pubs -East. Athletics He claims that he spent more than £ 2,000 on drinks for others and was on a “unstable” video on the conclusion of the evening.
When these revelations were placed in Guardiola at his press conference on Friday, the only contempt that radiated from the Catalan coach was to the question. “They know what to do,” he spoiled.
“A day off is a day off, there is no training. They have private lives to do whatever they want. I’m not going to control what they do in their private lives. I judge what I see on the pitch, training sessions and game performances. This is where I judge players.”
Guardiola did not look at Grealish’s performances on the pitch too kindly of the end, especially if compared to the Savinho always improved. Grealish has not started a single Premier League game since Christmas, despite being available for most accessories in the city. This chronic absence has called into question the participation of the striker in England and if it will even be in the club next season.
“I understand all the frustrations of all my players,” Guardiola acknowledged. “It is so good to have a dream of playing in the World Cup and the European Cup with its national team. It does not bother me this. What happens in terms of Jack, in terms of everyone, will be treated at the end of the season.
“But now we are playing many important things for the club. I want the best not only for Jack but for everyone. He is a player for Man City. What will happen? I don’t know what’s going to happen.”
