Grealish transfer news: Tottenham favourites to strike deal amid Man City exit talk

Jack Grealish to Tottenham rumours have heated up in recent weeks ahead of a vital transfer window for Spurs.

The summer is no doubt going to be one with big changes for the London club. Multiple players are being linked to and from Spurs, with a massive rebuild needed.

Wonderkid Rayan Cherki has been linked to Tottenham in recent weeks, while Cristian Romero is set to leave for Atletico Madrid.

Now, England international Jack Grealish is linked with Tottenham, with Ange Postecoglou’s side favourites to strike a deal.

Tottenham now bookies favourites to sign Jack Grealish

Grealish has not had a good time at Manchester City in recent seasons.

The winger has underperformed massively and as a result, has struggled to break into the England team.

In January, he ended his terrible goal drought that had lasted over a year when he scored in the 8-0 win over Salford City in the FA Cup.

Since then, he has shown some good moments in a City shirt, but is now often benched in favour of other options.

Therefore, Tottenham have been linked with Grealish to help get his career back on track.

While wages are seen as a potential stumbling block, this has not stopped the bookies from making Spurs favourites to sign the 29-year-old

According to Oddschecker (1 May), Spurs are as low as 4/1 to sign the England international. While he is still more likely to stay at City, Tottenham are now the frontrunners for his signature.

Jack Grealish would be an outstanding Tottenham signing

While Grealish’s recent form is concerning, he could be a masterful signing for Spurs.

In the attack, he would no doubt be the main man, which may help him rediscover his old performances.

Tottenham’s attacking outlet has been woeful at times this season, and with Grealish able to both provide and score goals, he could be transformative in the team.

Hopefully, the stumbling block over wages can be resolved in the summer, and Spurs can bring the England international to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
