Jack Grealish Prefers Manchester City Move To Manchester United

Jack Grealish now favours a move to Manchester City, having been heavily linked with a move to Manchester United in the past.

Grealish looked set for a move to United last summer, even after Aston Villa slapped a huge transfer fee on the forward, and some reports claimed it was a 'done deal.'

The move never came to pass and instead Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side signed Donny van de Beek, a move which didn't really work out for anyone.

This summer Grealish is actually a target for Premier League champions City, a long with Harry Kane, and it looks like it's what the Villa player wants.

According to the Athletic, the 25-year-old does now prefer a move to Pep Guardiola's team ahead of any move to United.

The forward has been linked with a huge move to the Etihad Stadium, with one report claiming it could be a British record fee involved.

Grealish's move to City could be £100 million, meaning it would smash the £89 million United paid to bring Paul Pogba back to the club in 2016.

That transfer would also break City's record, which is surprisingly 'just' £64 million, which is what they paid for Ruben Dias last summer, but it could be overtaken quite quickly.

The Champions League runners up number one target remains Kane and any deal to sign the Premier League's Golden Boot winner would likely be more than £100 million.

Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy reportedly wants £200 million for the England captain, although £150 million has also previously been quoted.

City could attempt to bring the price down by offering both Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus to sweeten the pot and help Spurs replace their leading scorer.

United missing out on both stars to their rivals could be a huge blow as they attempt to close the 12 point gap to the champions next season.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's team have been linked with Jadon Sancho again this summer, with a right winger reportedly their priority.
