ATLETICO MADRID is weighing a surprising offer for Man City outcast Jack Grealish.
As reported by SunSport, the £100million winger is highly valued at the Wanda Metropolitano for his remarkable work ethic both on and off the pitch.
The 30-year-old is regarded as a suitable tactical addition for Diego Simeone, who has a history of recruiting British talent like Kieran Trippier and Conor Gallagher.
However, hurdles remain in finalizing a deal, as Atletico is already well-equipped in their attacking lineup.
Simeone has recently acquired Lee Kang-In from PSG and has options like Alex Baena, Thiago Almada, and Ademola Lookman available for wing roles.
If Grealish transfers to the Spanish capital, he may need to accept a rotational position.

The former Aston Villa star has not played since January due to a foot injury sustained while on loan at Everton.
He has resumed training and is collaborating with RCD Mallorca to maintain fitness and generate interest from other clubs.
If a transfer to Atletico does not materialize, Grealish may contemplate returning to Everton after a successful loan period where he scored two goals and assisted six others.

The Toffees are eager to re-sign Grealish on another loan, viewing it as a secure and practical solution.
A comeback to his childhood club Aston Villa is also a possibility, five years after departing Villa Park.
During his stint at Villa, he made 213 appearances while captaining a team now flourishing under Unai Emery after last season’s Europa League triumph.
Reports indicate that Villa are contemplating the idea of re-acquiring Grealish, believing he could provide essential width as they aim to offload Leon Bailey to Hull.
The departures of Morgan Rogers and Youri Tielemans have led to a decrease in creativity, and Grealish could be the spark they need.
Opportunities also exist for Grealish in Saudi Arabia, with Al-Hilal, Al-Ahli, and Neom all showing interest.
These clubs are willing to offer Grealish salaries ranging from £17m to £21m annually.
Additionally, the MLS has expressed interest, seeing his profile and persona as a perfect commercial fit for the league.
