Jack Grealish’s future is drawing interest from Al Hilal, Atlético Madrid and several MLS clubs, with Manchester City yet to clarify their stance this summer.
Al Hilal lead the chase
Arab media reports say Al Hilal have put forward a very large financial package in an effort to complete a move in the summer window. The Saudi club are understood to be offering Grealish annual wages of between €20m and €23m.
That figure is said to be above offers from other clubs tracking the England international, which could give Al Hilal an edge if Grealish is open to leaving the Premier League.
Atlético still watching
Atlético Madrid remain interested, with Diego Simeone believed to see Grealish as one of his main options to add more attacking power. The Spanish side think he could recover his best level in La Liga.
Finances may block a deal, though. Reports suggest Atlético would only be able to move if City lowered their asking price or agreed to a loan with an option to buy.
Transfermarkt currently values Grealish at about €28m. The final decision now rests with City and the player in the coming days.
