A Jack Grealish lookalike sent fans into tears of laughter after he was spotted on the Etihad pitch during Manchester City's title celebrations at the weekend.
The Cityzens won their third successive Premier League title after title rivals Arsenal lost 1-0 at Nottingham Forest on Saturday (May 20). Pep Guardiola's men put the icing on the cake with a 1-0 win of their own against Chelsea a day later.
Fans invaded the Etihad pitch to celebrate the team defending their league crown. Cameras soon picked out the Grealish lookalike who was donning a similar hairstyle to that of the English winger.
Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher noticed the fan who had a striking resemblance to Grealish. However, soon viewers were also spotting the apparent doppelganger, with one Twitter user tweeting:
“The Jack Grealish lookalike i’m crying."
Another fan thinks the Grealish lookalike had one of the worst haircuts they had seen:
“That Grealish lookalike had the WORST trim I’ve ever seen.”
Here's how Twitter reacted to the Manchester City's fan resemblance to Grealish:
For the real Grealish, it has been a season to remember, as he has become a standout performer for Manchester City. The English attacker arrived at the Etihad in 2021 for £100 million, becoming the most expensive British transfer at the time.
Grealish endured a mixed debut season with the Cityzens as he struggled for form, managing six goals and four assists in 39 games across competitions. The England international was failing to live up to his astronomical price tag.
However, Grealish has become Guardiola's go-to left winger this season and has been in superb form. He has bagged five goals and 11 assists in 48 games across competitions.
Robbie Savage doesn't think Arsenal will challenge Manchester City for title next season
Premier League legend Robbie Savage has snubbed Arsenal when naming the teams he thinks will challenge Manchester City next season. The Gunners were Guardiola's side's biggest rivals this campaign, holding an eight-point lead over the Cityzens in January.
However, Mikel Arteta's men imploded at the back end of the campaign, so Savage doesn't expect them to challenge again. He thinks it will be three other sides that could put up a fight for a potential title quest next season, telling BBC Radio 5 Live:
“Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool are the three teams that can challenge Man City next season. But they will need to come up with 95 points to run them close.”
Manchester United are fourth and sit 19 points below Manchester City in the standings. Meanwhile, Liverpool are fifth, 22 points off the Premier League champions, while Chelsea are down in 12th and trail the Cityzens by a massive 45 points.
