Strategic Insights -

Manchester City winger Jack Grealish is set to return to training at the club, reportedly initially on his own, while his camp continues to work on a summer transfer move.

Grealish has been working with a personal trainer to maintain his physical condition, and a new report from The Telegraph suggests that he has agreed to return to City's training facilities, potentially benefiting from the club's resources.
