BBC Radio WM presenter Daz Hale says Jack Grealish "would be an asset" if he returned to Aston Villa, despite some notable drawbacks. Grealish left boyhood club Villa in 2021 to join Manchester City for a then British record £100m, going on to win three Premier League titles, the Champions League and the FA Cup before falling out of favour and being loaned to Everton last season.
The Liverpool Echo's Joe Thomas says having a player like Jack Grealish in the Everton ranks would prove "invaluable" and bringing him back to the club should be a "no-brainer" if possible. Grealish spent last season on loan at the Toffees from Manchester City, impressing in the first half of the campaign before a foot injury suffered in January ruled him out for the rest of the campaign. "With Grealish, I think his leadership comes in a slightly different way than that of a James Tarkowski or a Seamus Coleman," Thomas told BBC Radio Merseyside's Giulia Bould.
Today’s rumours are at a pintxo barJack Grealish needs a route out of Manchester City and could be offered one by Atlético Madrid. Everton, where he spent last season on loan, and first club Aston Villa are also lurking as the winger recovers from injury. The 30-year-old is absent from City’s pre-season tour and his future at the Etihad Stadium does not have a positive outlook, even after Enzo Maresca replaced Pep Guardiola.Tottenham’s attempts to add some more attacking power has caused them to enquire about Galatasaray’s Victor Osimhen and Liverpool’s Cody Gakpo, not that either would come cheaply. One imminent outgoing is the youngster Mikey Moore who is closing on a loan move to Cologne. Continue reading...
Brighton scored all of their goals from set pieces as they fought back from 2-0 down to clinch a 4-3 win against Strasbourg to wrap up their week-long training camp in Austria. The Ligue 1 side went two goals up inside the first 14 minutes thanks to Martial Godo and Samuel Amo-Ameyaw, before the Seagulls hit back with two goals in six minutes. Pascal Gross needed a second bite at the cherry to convert his penalty, before assisting team-mate Olivier Boscagli from a free-kick for an important equaliser.
"It is always sad to see a player and a person of his stature leave," says Brighton head coach Fabian Hurzeler following the announcement of Danny Welbeck's move to Chelsea. The 35-year-old forward, who joined the Seagulls on a free transfer in October 2020, went on to make 201 appearances in all competitions - scoring 51 goals and contributing 18 assists. "We are all sorry to see him go," Hurzeler said.
