“I’d done something that comes around once in a lifetime. The last time it was done…I don’t know when Man United did it, but it hasn’t been done for ages.”
Jack went onto explain why he and City teammates celebrated so hard.
“So why not celebrate like that? Everyone was with me. I wasn’t on my own, going out with my friends. I was with the whole team.”
“We enjoyed ourselves the Saturday, Sunday, Monday. I had the best weekend of my whole life. I’d just won the Champions League and I was so emotional after it.”
Grealish was a key part of the Manchester City’s success post the December FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
Grealish returned in career best form and that showed all the way through the second half of the season.

After such a historical season Jack Grealish and his Manchester City teammates were entitled to celebrate their achievements.
Grealish is now on holidays. He and his teammates will now enjoy their time off before pre season begins again in 4 weeks time.
