Milan involved with two key causes on proposed Jack Grealish deal

Jack Grealish’s fall from grace has been a tumultuous one since becoming a member of Metropolis for a club-record price. His obvious CV at Villa, the place the winger managed a powerful 32 targets and 43 assists in 213 appearances lured the English champions into investing an outrageous quantity of £100 million in him to keep away from competitors from the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United and Liverpool who had been within the 27-year-old as properly.

Nonetheless, Metropolis’s transfer has massively backfired as regardless of a system the place Grealish can truly flourish, the England worldwide has solely managed a disastrous 7 targets and 6 assists in 57 video games for the membership. Whereas his debut season was certainly a troublesome one, with the likes of Raheem Sterling and Phil Foden in entrance of him within the pecking order, Metropolis removed Sterling this summer season to create house for Grealish.
