Jack Grealish will not be part of the Manchester City squad for the pre-season tour in Asia.

The winger returned to pre-season training with the Blues last week but was working individually as he continues to recover from an injury picked up during his loan spell with Everton last term.

And that issue has been cited as a reason for the 30-year-old’s omission from the travelling City party for games against Inter Milan in Hong Kong and the K-League All-Stars and Atletico Madrid in South Korea.

Grealish has not played since January and his future at City remains in doubt with the expectation that he will leave the Etihad this summer as he heads into the final year of his contract. The winger posted images on social media on Tuesday of him in Mallorca and he has been on the Spanish island since Monday.

New boss Enzo Maresca spoke of his affection for the former Aston Villa man during his first press conference as City manager last week.

“At the moment, he’s here. He’s a Man City player,” Maresca said. “I always said the same. In any club I join, I like to know if there are players that belong to the club. It’s my duty to try to coach them. Jack is here. I have a good relation with Jack since I left. Also, we keep in touch, and the reason why is because he has a big heart and he’s a very good guy. So this is the reason why. And then we see what happens.”
