The Cityzens’ pursuit of a fifth consecutive Premier League title could be off to a challenging start without their key forward.

The Cityzens’ pursuit of a fifth consecutive Premier League title could face an early challenge with star forward Jack Grealish potentially sidelined for their season opener against Chelsea. Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola revealed that the 28-year-old is a significant injury doubt after picking up a knock during training before their penalty shootout victory in the Community Shield against Manchester United. As a precaution, Guardiola opted to leave Grealish out of the squad.

Guardiola remains hopeful that Grealish will be fit for the match at Stamford Bridge but acknowledged the possibility that he may not be ready in time. “Maybe against Chelsea, he will be ready, or I’m pretty sure against Ipswich Town,” Guardiola said.
