The midfielder says the decision to leave his hometown club was a difficult one
Jack Grealish says he can sympathise with Lionel Messi as both confirmed their departures from their long-time clubs last week.
Grealish officially signed with Manchester City on Thursday, departing Aston Villa after spending two decades with his hometown club.
Messi, meanwhile, has departed Barcelona this summer with the Argentine widely set to join PSG, and Grealish says he understands fully why Messi was in tears at his goodbye press conference.
