John Barnes has called out Manchester City for signing Jack Grealish ahead of Harry Kane, saying the ex-Aston Villa playmaker 'doesn't improve them'.
Grealish became the most expensive player in British football history when Pep Guardiola's side bought him for £100million earlier this month.
Guardiola has made no secret of his desire to also acquire Kane before the transfer window closes, but is baulking at Tottenham's £150m asking price for their talisman and best player.

But Barnes claimed City should have prioritised Kane over Grealish because of the wealth of creative attacking talent Guardiola already has at the Etihad, against a lack of firepower in front of goal.
