Jack Grealish explains his absence from Manchester city after his worst injury ever left doctors stunned.
That is the headline shared in the Mirror newspaper (UK) today, October 13. Manchester city star Jack Grealish has opened up about the injury that has prevented him from playing this season ahead of England’s friendly match against australia at 1:45 a.m. tomorrow, October 14. However, Jack Grealish will not play in this England training camp because he is in the recovery period from injury.
a collision with Oli McBurnie left Jack Grealish injured in august. Jack Grealish said Man city doctors told him this was the worst injury they had ever seen.
it forced Jack Grealish, 28, to use crutches for days and left him unable to do any exercise for almost a month. and that is why Jack Grealish has not started in the premier League since Man city’s match against sheffield United on august 29.
Jack Grealish explained: “That tackle wasn’t even bad. after the game, i was sore but when i sat on the bench i thought… “Oh no, i need something here, doctor.” Then i got out of the car and i literally couldn’t walk.
You can all laugh at me but that was the worst “dead leg” i have ever had in my life. if you have an amputated leg, you have a hematoma, if your leg is damaged, it is about 6 cm long, and mine is about 20 cm.
Our doctor at Man city, who used to work at ac Milan and everything, said… “that’s the worst leg i’ve ever seen”. it was the worst pain ever. i was on crutches for a few days after the fight and i swear i can’t even explain the pain.
i cannot bend or straighten my leg. For three and a half weeks, i couldn’t do a single workout. Now that i’m back, especially in the last few weeks, i’m still trying to train to get back to full fitness.”
Grealish’s explanation about the severity of the injury sheds light on why pep Guardiola only left him on the bench in the last three premier League matches and did not use him in the loss to arsenal. Jack Grealish admitted he felt a bit strange at the start of the new season, after winning a historic treble with Man city last season.
Jack Grealish talked about his motivation after winning a historic treble with Man city: “i have never ended a season so successfully. i’m not saying it’s hard to get motivated, you can’t say that. However, once you do it (win a historic treble), it’s like… “now what?”.
But now that Jack Grealish has overcome his injury and is gradually returning to his best physical condition, Grealish is eager to reclaim his position in Man city and England. and of course, Jack Grealish hopes to continue last season’s excellent performance with Man city by helping England win glory at Euro 2024 in Germany.
Jack Grealish shared that the England team has an extremely quality attack with a young age. “We feel like there is unfinished business,” he continued. We feel that now is probably the perfect time to succeed. You look at the players we have, it’s unbelievable. Harry Kane , Jude Bellingham, saka, Foden, Rashford, Declan Rice…
The quality we have in attack, especially on the wings, is probably the best in world football . it is second to none. Euro 2024 is a tournament that we are trying to achieve our goal of participating in and hoping to win. We feel this is our time.”
