face a tough test at the Santiago Bernabeu, needing to overturn a 3-2 first-leg deficit to secure their place in the Round of 16.

The England international confirmed his return to full training with a post on his Instagram story, providing a timely boost for Pep Guardiola's side ahead of their Champions League showdown.

Jeremy Doku also recently revealed he is back from injury, having made a brief appearance against Newcastle, further strengthening City's attacking options.

Grealish has endured a mixed season, both in terms of form and his role within the squad, with speculation surrounding his long-term future. The 29-year-old has managed just two goals and five assists in 24 appearances for the defending Premier League champions this season.

While some Man City supporters have criticised Grealish, with the likes of Savinho and Doku stepping up, his return remains a welcome boost. He was instrumental in the side’s first goal against Real Madrid in the first leg, delivering a lofted ball into the box that led to Josko Gvardiol setting up Erling Haaland.

Despite his return, questions remain over Grealish's place in Guardiola's plans. He has started just six Premier League games this season, increasingly finding himself in a rotational role.

revealed that Man City are open to offers for Grealish as part of a planned squad overhaul in the summer. His inconsistent displays have seen Guardiola turn to other options who have made strong cases for more regular game time.

For now, however, City fans will be pleased to see him back in contention as they prepare for a high-stakes clash against Real Madrid. Anything less than a victory at the Bernabeu would see the reigning Premier League champions suffer an early and disappointing Champions League exit.
