Although he still has to leave Manchester City, there is some certainty for Jack Grealish who wears the colors of another club at the beginning of the 2025/26 season.
The 29-year-old English international fell out of favor of Pep Guardiola that he was not even selected to go to the club World Cup, a match that left the city earlier than expected after a stunning loss against Saudi Pro League Giants, Hilal.
One goal and two assists in 2024/25
Although Grealisk is definitely a player who would pay to watch, one can perfectly understand the position of the Catalans.
Throughout the 2024/25 campaign, the attacking midfielder managed a meager one goal and two assists in 21 performances.
Even if one takes into account that he only started in eight of those competitions – and have contributed his total minutes in all competitions (805) to less than a total of nine games – that is still far below the standards that Guardiola has set for the city.

The team itself was far below the par when someone put in context what happened earlier, so gralis was not only in seeming like the performance; However, it is not a piece to say that Grealisk really did not perform at all.
A shot 'faint of only 6.7% showed that even if he had to beat his husband, which was something else that did not happen often enough in 2024/25, there was little chance that he thought it was.
Perhaps that is the reason why the statistics would indicate that he would rather play in a teammate, given his 91% pass -in the Premier League.
Original and sober
The Swashbuckling -with which Grealisk is playing the game is very nice to view from the perspective of a supporter. Fans identify with his originality and sober attitude in an era in which everyone seems to be in public interest by media trained.
That can win the hearts and spirits, but it doesn't win football matches.

If you only try nine tackles for a whole season and only win five of them, it is clear that you do not give your best.
It is difficult to get some rhythm if you are in and out of a team, it is true, although a player has to influence the game when the chance is given, and that is where Grealish Sleas Sleed was poorly deposed in 2024/25.

In the triple season of the city, for example, Grealisk was much better able in both his goals and production, as well as his general contribution.
Five goals and seven assists remain his best for the club (2022/23) to date, while the 989 fits are the most that he has made a long way in a campaign for the city.
274 One-on-one duels tried compared to only 19 last season is another incredible indicator of how much of a bystander had become Grealish in some games, while 25 attempted attempt is almost three times as much as last season. 16 Won is more than three times what he managed in 2024/25.
Does the Treble win the reason behind the poor form of Grealisk?
The story that players have somehow completed 'football' if they succeed in winning the Treble of Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League, is to be honest, a non -argument, and only shows a lack of professionalism if such a performance leads to a player who seems to have done their foot – as Grealish.
So what is the following?
With the World Cup just a year away, Grealisk could be that a decent season in 2025/26 will at least offer him the chance to be in the conversation when Thomas Tuchel calls his last team.
The German has shown that he knows his own mind by bringing players back to the international fold, many thought they had seen the latter in an English shirt.
Does anyone really want to buy the risk of buying a player who costs £ 100 million just a few seasons ago, but is probably not worth much more than a fifth of that now?
If he can do well in a new club – and reports that the Italian giants Napoli are almost becoming his new employers – then there is every reason to think that, apart from inland success, he could surpass everything with that England remembrance.
Time to set it up again
However, in order to even have a thought in Tuchel's spirit, Grealisk will have to come back to the type of form he shown in 2022/23, otherwise he can forget it.
At the age of 29, the player may have a few seasons left at the highest level of the game if he is able to get his head down and work.
If he is satisfied to see the rest of his career in relative darkness, because he simply no longer has the motivation, that would be the most sad of endings for a fairly decent career.
