Grealish: Champions League final why I joined Man City

Manchester City star Jack Grealish stated that being part of games like the Champions League final is why he signed for the club.

The former Aston Villa attacker has been integral for City as they steamrollered to the Premier League and FA Cup titles.

Now they take on Internazionale in the Champions League final on Saturday, with Grealish hoping he will play a starring role again.

“This is the exact reason that I came to City," he said to club media.

“To play in a Champions League final and have played such a big part in everything this year in the league and FA Cup too.

"It's what you dream of when you're a youngster growing up and even five or six years ago it was what I was dreaming of.

“So to go and do it in a final with this group of guys now is a privilege and a dream come true."
