Grealish, who moved to Manchester City in 2021 with a transfer fee of £100 million (about 187 billion won), the highest ever for an English player, was highly anticipated as soon as he joined Aston Villa.
However, Grealish's performance was a little off Man City's expectations. Grealish, who suffered ups and downs in the first season, raised expectations again by playing in the European Champions League, league, and FA Cup along with Manchester City's achievement of treble in the 2022-2023 season. However, in the 2023-2024 season, Grealish had more time to return to the bench and rarely rebounded as he lost his seat to Jeremy Doku.
It was serious enough to finish 2024 without scoring a goal. Grealish has also been criticised for failing to score a single goal in more than a year from December 16, 2023, to the FA Cup match against Salford on January 12, 2025. There is still no clear rebound this season.

At the time, Grealish was frustrated until his dream Euro 2024 appearance along with his sluggish performance, surprising fans as he continued to be seen with unconventional blonde hair and alcohol. Since then, scenes of being in a bar during the season have been captured several times, raising fans' eyebrows with poor performance and actions.
Tottenham initially reportedly wanted Grealish as a replacement for Son Heung-min. Give Me Sports of England 'Tottenham is interested in signing Grealish. However, considering financial problems, it is not clear how many months the transfer will be made. Son Heung-min is likely to leave the team after a disappointing season, and Tottenham will need a replacement. However, compared to Son Heung-min, who is considered sluggish this season, Grealish's performance is below expectations. Son Heung-min has 11 goals and 11 assists in 43 official matches, and Grealish has 3 goals and 5 assists in 30 matches.
Weekly pay is also a problem. Grealish is reportedly receiving a whopping 300,000 pounds (about 560 million won) from Manchester City. The amount is well above the 190,000 pounds (about 350 million won) of Son Heung-min, Tottenham's highest weekly wage. For Tottenham, negotiations such as weekly pay cuts and subsidies are needed.
