Grealish Shuts Down Transfer Rumours After Wrexham Visit
Wrexham A.F.C. co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney's revitalised club hopes to rise to the Premier League, but Jack Grealish's recent visit has sparked transfer speculation.
Grealish, a Manchester City forward, was spotted at the Cardiff City Stadium on Monday, where he watched his former Aston Villa teammate Callum Robinson play for Cardiff against Wrexham. A Cardiff City fan shouted a transfer question at Grealish as he left the stadium, to which he replied, "Not sure yet."
The 30-year-old Grealish joined Manchester City from Aston Villa in 2021 for around £100m, then a British record, and was influential in the 2023 treble. However, he fell out of favour under Pep Guardiola and spent last season on loan at Everton.
Wrexham's Hollywood co-owners have revitalised the club and fuelled hopes of a Premier League rise. Cardiff, back in the Championship under Brian Barry-Murphy, showed resilience on the night.
Grealish had played for Manchester City some 24 hours earlier, coming on in the second half of the 3-0 Community Shield defeat to Arsenal at the Principality Stadium. The current League standing is 14th in Championship, 1 point, 0W-1D-0L from 1 game, recent form D.
What's Next for Grealish?
It remains to be seen whether Grealish features under new Manchester City boss Enzo Maresca this season. The title race is currently 2 points behind leaders QPR.
