Jack Grealish reveals how he improved by studying Manchester City star

Jack Grealish has revealed that he watched Kevin De Bruyne's performances, and it helped him improve his assists at Aston Villa. The 25-year-old, who recently sealed a move to Manchester City, has not once revealed his admiration for De Bruyne.

And speaking to the club's official magazine, Grealish stated: "The season before last [2019/20], I got 6 assists and I watched clips of de Bruyne when I was at Villa. I said I want my end ball to be like his.   "That is something I practice on and last season I got 10 assists in 27 games, which is a good return.   "That's what I based it off, the way he plays and the way he always finds that perfect ball. I have played against him a few times and have got his shirt. I cannot wait to play alongside him.   "I've spoken about [De Bruyne] a good few times. I've always said that apart from Ronaldo and Messi he's the best in the world.   "He's got absolutely everything; how fast he is when he knocks the ball by defenders, his final ball is unbelievable."
