Jack Grealish was asked by a Cardiff City fan if he was signing as a permanent or a loan, to which he replied: "Not sure yet".
Grealish at Cardiff City Stadium
The Manchester City star was in attendance at the Cardiff City Stadium on Monday night as Cardiff faced Welsh rivals Wrexham. A video posted on social media showed Grealish making his way to the exit after the game, with a fan shouting the transfer question at him.
Grealish, with a smile, played along and responded: "Not sure yet". The light-hearted suggestion was clearly that he was on the verge of signing for the Bluebirds.
Supporting former team-mate
Grealish was believed to be supporting his close friend and former Aston Villa team-mate Callum Robinson, who came off the bench for Cardiff. The England star had been playing for Manchester City in the Community Shield defeat to Arsenal some 24 hours earlier, where City were well beaten at the Principality Stadium, going down 3-0.
Grealish was introduced as a second half substitute on the day, but his future at the club appears uncertain. The 30-year-old joined City from Aston Villa in 2021 in a deal worth around £100m, making him the most expensive British player. He played a big part in City's treble win in 2023 but fell out of favour during the latter years of Pep Guardiola's reign and spent last season on loan at Everton.
Cardiff's late comeback
It remains to be seen if he will play a role under new boss Enzo Maresca this season. Meanwhile, Cardiff proved they'll be no pushovers on their return to the Championship under Brian Barry-Murphy. Robin Colwill came off the bench to level with a sensational free kick in the eighth minute of stoppage time, after former Bluebird Kieffer Moore had given the visitors an early lead. After Colwill's late heroics, some City fans might be wondering if Grealish would get into Brian Barry-Murphy's XI right now.
