Football General Manager
- Grealish expected to leave Man City
- Wanted by Everton and Napoli
- Conte eager to bring in outcast
Grealish looks destined to leave Manchester City this summer, particularly after being left out of Pep Guardiola’s Club World Cup squad. Everton are keen to bring in the 29-year-old star on loan but look set to face competition from Serie A champions Napoli, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport. Manager Antonio Conte is a big fan of Grealish and has already signed his former City team-mate Kevin De Bruyne for the club.

Conte has turned to Grealish after being beaten to Dan Ndoye’s signature by Nottingham Forest. The Manchester City star has been training in Italy this summer, and not too far away from Napoli, which has also increased optimism at the club that he could be tempted to join the Serie A side this summer.

Manchester City are currently reported to be asking for around €45m (£39m) to sell Grealish this summer. Grealish currently earns around €10m (£8.6m) per season but is willing to take a pay cut to secure a move.
Interest in Grealish appears to be increasing ahead of the start of the season, and he may will be eager to move on in search of regular minutes in a bid to boost his hopes of making the England squad for World Cup 2026. Grealish has returned to pre-season training with Manchester City this week but fans will have to wait and see where he starts the new campaign next month.
