Several Aston Villa fans have been reacting to a transfer update regarding Manchester City and their interest in Jack Grealish.
The boyhood Villa fan was linked with a move to Pep Guardiola’s side last month and was reportedly excited by a potential Etihad switch.
According to a fresh report from the Daily Mail, cited by Birmingham Live, City are set to go after Grealish in an audacious double summer swoop, along with Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland.
Grealish to City progressing
The update claims a double deal could cost close to £200m, with Haaland seen as a perfect replacement for Sergio Aguero.
City’s interest in Grealish has thought to have progressed in recent weeks, according to the Daily Mail. They suggest that there is hope a deal can now be struck with Aston Villa, even though Villa are under no pressure to sell.
Grealish, who recently returned to training following a leg injury, is under contract in the Midlands until 2025.
