JACK GREALISH is reportedly set to cut his holiday with Wag Sasha Attwood short in order to fight for his England spot.
The Manchester City star had been unwinding abroad after winning another Premier League title.
Grealish, 28, endured a difficult season at the Etihad after it was impacted by injury.
This had put doubts on whether the winger would make the final 26-man squad for Euro 2024.
The Daily Mail have claimed that he will cut his holiday short and report to England’s pre-tournament training camp in Darlington.
His team-mates at Man City and Manchester United stars were not expected until next week.
This was due to the players being involved in the FA Cup final that the Red Devils won.
The report suggests that Grealish is determined to make the plane to Germany.
It is also added that City team-mate John Stones will also arrive earlier than scheduled.
The defender also suffered with injuries during the season and was used sparingly by Pep Guardiola towards the end of the campaign.

Grealish will have plenty of competition for one of the attacking roles in the Three Lions’ squad.
Gareth Southgate will have to dwindle his choices down from the likes of Cole Palmer, Eberechi Eze, Bukayo Saka, Phil Foden, Anthony Gordon and Jarrod Bowen.
Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw also reported for duty early as they prioritised getting back fit for the tournament.
The majority of players arrived at Rockliffe Hall yesterday, and some fans suggested James Maddison was trying to talk Eze into a transfer to Tottenham Hotspur.
Jack Grealish’s Euro 2024 place in jeopardy

JACK GREALISH is sweating on a Euro 2024 place after a nightmare end to the season.
The £100million star celebrated Manchester City’s four-in-a-row title success on a bus parade yesterday.
But now he is battling with Tottenham’s James Maddison to secure a spot in Gareth Southgate’s England squad.
Cole Palmer, Jarrod Bowen and Anthony Gordon all look certain to go after excellent seasons with their clubs — while Bukayo Saka is guaranteed a spot.
But Grealish, 28, has struggled and his lack of match action for his club will be a big concern for the Three Lions boss.
The former Aston Villa captain has featured in only one of City’s final five matches.
That was a ten-minute run out in the 5-1 win over Wolves this month.
He was not thrown on at Wembley as the below-par champs desperately searched for a way back in to Saturday’s 2-1 FA Cup Final defeat to rivals Manchester United.
City boss Pep Guardiola explained his decision afterwards by admitting the attacker has “struggled” this season.
He has challenged him to recapture the form from the back end of the 2022-23 season when he helped the club secure an historic Treble.
Guardiola said: “He will be back. He’s struggled this season — Jeremy Doku has made an incredible step forward as everyone has seen in the last games.
“But Jack will be back at the level of last season — I’m pretty sure.”
