On Saturday he was spotted letting his hair down – by donning a shoulder-length blond wig.

But he is now set to return for City’s pre-season training camp.

The ex-Aston Villa star was spotted boarding a private plane in Cannes wearing a black hoodie, black shorts and sliders.

Grealish took part in a solo session at Man City’s training ground last week with personal trainer Jamie Reynolds.

He also recently trained at Juventus’ academy while on a well-earned holiday in Italy.

The winger was seen enjoying a break in Sardinia with his girlfriend last month.

Before that he travelled to Dubai for a holiday with some friends.

FORMER Arsenal star Paul Merson revealed his theory as to why the £100million Manchester City star was not brought to Germany.

Appearing on Football’s Greatest Pod alongside legendary presenter Jeff Stelling, Merson was asked about the thoughts of Gordon and Palmer’s zero minutes so far, revealing a theory about avoiding conflict in the camp.

The 56-year-old said: “That’s why they’re there and Jack Grealish is not there. Because Jack, I imagine, would be going mad now. I can’t imagine Gordon and Palmer saying anything.

“I just imagine them sitting there, just saying to himself; ‘Well, maybe I should be getting on’.

“I don’t see him saying anything to him. I could see a Grealish going to Gareth and going; ‘Why am I not playing?'”

He continued: “I think he brings on Eze, who’s one of our most gifted players to do a job, he’s running back.

“He puts Bowen on the other side, Bowen’s alright if you want to keep a lead, you know if we’re winning like we were last week [against Serbia].

“We’re one-nil up, you put him out on the right, he’ll do what it says on the tin, get up and down, block crosses, get crosses in.

“But you don’t put him on to win a game in my opinion. You know there’s horses for courses.

“You’ve got to put Palmer on, he scored 20 goals this season. You know he can play with that bit of flair. Eze gets on and he doesn’t touch the ball hardly, there’s no plan.

“You know I would play Watkins but I’d have to keep Kane in the team. I’d have to find a way because you know you have to keep world class players on the football pitch.”

Meanwhile, Southgate said of his decision to chop Grealish: “I have just delivered a really difficult conversation to a lad who is devastated. I think the world of him as a kid.

“It certainly doesn’t get any easier. You put yourself in the shoes of a player, a parent.

“You understand that for these players this is a devastating moment. We knew we had a couple of really difficult days coming up.

“The whole period has been tough, going back to talking to Marcus Rashford and Hendo (Jordan Henderson). Lots of difficult calls. But we have worked through all of that.”

Grealish surprisingly missed out on a spot in Gareth Southgate’s 26-man England squad ahead of Euro 2024.
