After spending time talking to a mascot for the blind during the Super Cup final, JACK GREALISH has been hailed as a “class act.”
Fans saw the winger make the heartfelt gesture as he and his teammates headed to pick up their medals of victory.
Even his fellow City members were delayed in receiving their medals as he engaged the young girl, who is sight handicapped, in conversation.Aleksander Ceferin, president of Uefa, had to endure an embarrassing moment when he attempted to shake the 27-year-old Grealish’s hand three times before ultimately putting a medal around his neck.Grealish’s kindness was lauded by the public, who valued his kind deed.
What a great guy, one person exclaimed. Such a sincere, kind, modest, everyday guy who is always willing to sacrifice his time for people, no matter who they may be, and this is not an act; this is him exactly as he is. But that’s why he’s a top bloke. Additional commenter: “Class act Jack!”One of the kindest footballers, according to a third.Another person added, “Very hard not to like this man, top bloke,” to the conversation. Grealish started the match against Sevilla and converted a penalty to give the Citizens their first-ever Super Cup victory. But after the game, he joked that the days of going out drinking as he did after the Champions League final are over and said the celebrations will be more modest.When asked if those moments would be repeated, Grealish responded, “Nah, put a ban on that.We’ll return home tonight, eat a wonderful meal, and relax. Straight after healing, return to the Premier League.
