Naples It is very close to it bring it to southern Italy on Kevin By Bruyne (33 years old), the Belgian player will have the highest salary in Serie A. However, the new champion in “Boot” is not going to stop here and plans to transfer another player from Manchester Cityaccording to Talksport.
The full program of the first stage of the club world
This is Jack Grealish, the 29-year-old footballer who was passed on the dead Pep Guardiola, and as a result, he wants to leave “citizens” this summer.

After losing his place in the first 11 of the band on Etihad Stadium this season, Jack Grealish received a stinging blow. The English midfielder has been announced that he will not be included in the “citizens” lot that will move to the United States, where the World Club Championship will take place (June 14 – July 13).
In addition, the advanced negotiations that City's officials carry during this time with Olympique Lyon in terms of Rayan Cherki's transfer, the same profile footballer, is still a clear sign that Guardiola will be less and less on Grealish's services in the next season.
Thus, although he still has a contract with the former champion in the Premier League until the summer of 2027, the midfielder would like to leave Etihad faster, and Naples are trying to speculate this.
However, given that Grealish is still under contract with the “citizens”, the new winner of “il Scudetto” will not be able to transfer English for free, as he did with Kevin de Bruyne, and this could be an impediment to Napoletans.
Considering the fact that, in addition to the transfer amount that he should pay to City, but also the salary he would pay to the player, De Laurentiis has two other massive expenses to do this summer, both priority for the Italian club, namely the increase of Antonio Conte, respectively the salary of KDB.

The British press, however, announces that the band on “Stadio Diego Armando Maradona” is willing to spend more money this summer, precisely to keep its supremacy in Italy, but also to make a beautiful figure in the Champions League.

Jack Grealish scored a single goal this season as Premier League
The English footballer comes after the weakest season spent in the “citizens” shirt.
He ticked 32 appearances in all competitions for Pep Guardiola's band, during which time he managed to score three times and offer five decisive passes.
In the championship, Grealish scored only once and offered a single “assist” during 20 appearances, most of them being from the reserve position.
Due to these disappointing figures, its market value collapsed considerably, from 100 million euros (its evaluation in 2021, when it signed with City), only 28 (currently).
