The offer came after a popular sports page posted on Instagram saying: “BREAKING NEWS. Jack Grealish agrees 4-week loan deal to Ocean Beach – HERE WE GO.” – with the post racking up 25,000 likes.
After The Mirror approached Lineker for comment on the proposed “transfer”, the Ibiza supremo and former Celebs Go Dating star said: “Gareth’s loss is our gain. We love hosting Jack at O Beach Ibiza, he’s a great lad!”
Grealish went Ocean Beach last year as he celebrated Manchester City’s record treble season, with the City winger and Wayne swapping photos on social media.
Gareth Southgate spoke out yesterday about the difficult talk he had with a “devastated” Grealish, who went on an epic month-long bender when Manchester City won the treble last year, after removing him from his initial 33-man roster.
The England manager stated: “I have just delivered a tremendously unpleasantnversation 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.”England’s players were said to have reacted with surprise at Grealish’s exclusion, with one senior player said to have approached Southgate to ask for an explanation about the decision.
Grealish was determined to make the squad following an inconsistent season with City.His most recent outing for England was on Monday as a substitute against Bosnia.
Grealish’s shocking withdrawal was leaked yesterday, ahead of Southgate’s official squad announcement, in which Harry Maguire was also ruled out with a calf injury.
The two players are joined by James Maddison, Curtis Jones, James Trafford, Jarrel Quansah, and Jarrad Branthwaite in missing out.
