Incoming Grealish could feature in Community Shield for Manchester City

Jack Grealish could feature for Manchester City in their game against Leicester City in the Community Shield.

What’s the story?

The Aston Villa playmaker has been linked with a move to the Etihad Stadium all summer long.

And it seems a move is nearing completion if you believe the latest reports.

According to The Telegraph, the attacking midfielder is close to completing a £100m switch. The ace will have a medical in the next 48 hours.

However, there is also an outside chance the midfielder could feature in the Community Shield this Saturday.

Pep Guardiola has previously claimed Grealish was ‘too expensive’ for the club

Grealish won’t need much integration into the Manchester City side amid hope he could feature in the Community Shield.

The Aston Villa star has been a standout player in the Premier League ever since the Midlanders’ return to the division.

His world-class ability on the ball means he’s on the same wavelength as some of City’s players.

The idea of Kevin de Bruyne and Grealish in the same midfield is enough to send shivers down anyone’s spine.

City will be a force to be reckoned with, especially if the England international hits the ground running next season.
