In an interview, Grealish has opened up on how not being in the squad was perhaps the \u2018most difficult thing he has ever faced in his career\u2019<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cI\u2019ll be honest it was probably, football-wise, the most difficult thing I\u2019ve ever had to deal with in my career. I was absolutely heartbroken and then obviously when you\u2019re on your holidays, wherever I was, every time you turn on the phone or turn on the TV or whatever, you just see it. So it was hard not to see it,\u201d said Grealish to The Athletic.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Grealis joined Manchester City in 2021 for a massive fee of 100m British Pounds after being the star player for Aston Villa. He has gone on to make 125 appearances for the club while racking up a menial 14 goals and 18 assists which has seen many people question his price tag over the years.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cIn my first season at City, I don\u2019t think I performed as well as I could and in the second season I played in a lot of the games and that was down to the first season. I had wanted to come back stronger and I certainly did that, so hopefully I can do that again,\u201d he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Grealish is now more motivated than ever to turn his career around starting this season, Manchester City will be playing against FC Barcelona and Chelsea FC in their remaining pre-season friendlies before getting set to face local rivals Manchester United in the Community Shield Cup match on August 10.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
