Manchester City’s new signing Jack Grealish is taking well to his new club. The Premier League champions improved their squad with the transfer of Grealish and will now look to win the UEFA Champions League after losing in the final last season to Chelsea. The signing of Grealish is meant to be the game-changer, and City is also linked with a move for Tottenham Hotspur star Harry Kane. However, for now, the club’s fans are ecstatic with the signing of Grealish. He gave his first interview as a Manchester City player and talked about why he joined the club. “I’m over the moon. To be playing for a club like Man City is obviously massive for me personally. It was obviously a difficult few months because I’ve been at Aston Villa my whole life,” Grealish said. He also revealed the role Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola had on his move. He also added the quality of players that City possesses in the squad convinced him to move to the club. “But when I spoke to the manager here, and you see what type of players they have got here, in the end, it was something that I couldn’t say no to. I’m absolutely delighted to be here,” Grealish concluded. This transfer broke the record for the most expensive player signed by an English club with a fee of 100 million pounds. Manchester United previously held it with their transfer fee for Paul Pogba. Moreover, it doesn’t seem like it’ll last very long either. Both City and Chelsea are linked with big-money moves for Harry Kane and Romelu Lukaku, respectively. JACK GREALISH AND HIS INCREDIBLE FORM IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE The England star has played 96 games in the Premier League and has scored [https://www.transfermarkt.co.in/jack-grealish/leistungsdaten/spieler/203460/plus/0?saison=2020] 15 goals for Aston Villa while assisting 19. These numbers might not seem like much, but Grealish was consistently among the top players for chance creation among the likes of City talisman Kevin De Bruyne and Manchester United’s Bruno Fernandes. He had a stellar season last year as he scored six times and got 12 assists in just 26 games. Manchester City has a bright star on its hands, and they can be the best team in the world with the signing of Harry Kane. of the England Euro 2020 Squad [https://www.essentiallysports.com/soccer-news-football-news-aston-villa-jack-grealish-my-mental-health-did-plummet-tyrone-mings-on-being-the-doubted-pick-of-the-england-euro-2020-squad/]

<strong>Josep 'Pep' Guardiola</strong> is a Spanish football manager and former professional player, who is the current coach of the English club Manchester City FC.
<h3><strong>Career and Achievements</strong></h3>
After kicking it off with FC Barcelona's academy at the age of 13, Guardiola made his senior debut in 1990. As a defensive midfielder, he had notable stints at Barcelona, Brescia, and AS Roma in Italy, Al Ahli SC in Qatar, and Dorados in Mexico. In his international career, Guardiola played for the Spanish national team and a few friendlies for Catalonia. Although his playing career was nothing short of remarkable, Guardiola as a manager towers over it.

When he took on a managerial role, his first assignment was the Barcelona B team in 2007. A year later, he was promoted to manager of the senior team. In Barcelona's most glorious days, to lead them to records and titles including sextuple, Guardiola was at the helm. More importantly, under Guardiola, Barcelona became highly disciplined with more focus on ball possession. He also employed a disciplined and aggressive pressing style which clearly worked out well.

He often played a high defensive line with the fullbacks pushing high up their respective sides. During the 2011-12 season, Guardiola employed the 3-4-3 line-up, especially when facing two attackers. Following the same season, he took a year-long sabbatical.

In 2013, Guardiola returned to manage Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich. He remained with the team until the 2015-16 season. With the Bavarians, he won 3 Bundesliga, DFB-Pokals, UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup.

After leaving Bayern in 2016, he signed with Manchester City in the Premier League and their sagacious tale still goes on, having won many trophies including 5 EPL titles, and a UCL so far.
<h3>Pep Guardiola's Net Worth in 2024</h3>
Pep Guardiola's current net worth is slated to be approximately <strong>$25 Million</strong>. The 53-year-old's fortunes come mainly from his salaries and bonuses from Manchester City as well as the brand endorsements and other sponsorship deals.
