The Blues confirmed the signing of the attacker on Tuesday on a season-long loan from Manchester City.

The 29-year-old has been looking for an exit from Etihad after making only seven Premier League starts for Pep Guardiola's side last season. Grealish became David Moyes’ sixth signing of the summer transfer window after Charly Alcaraz, Thierno Barry, Mark Travers, Adam Aznou and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.

The England international admitted that talks with Blues manager David Moyes were decisive in him choosing to move to Hill Dickinson Stadium.
