Manchester City’s Jack Grealish has been in the spotlight on social media recently after fans noticed that he carries two iPhones.

The 28-year-old forward was forced off the field in the first half of the UEFA Champions League last-16 first-leg match against FC Copenhagen, his first start for Manchester City since early January, due to a suspected muscular injury.

This has left Pep Guardiola concerned about his fitness for upcoming crucial matches.

Grealish has played a key role for Manchester City in important matches over the past year and a half, and his absence could impact matches against Chelsea, Manchester United, and Liverpool.

In addition to Grealish, City also had two other players, Bernardo Silva and Josko Gvardiol, leave the match due to injuries.

Despite these setbacks, Manchester City emerged victorious with a 3-1 win at the Parken Stadium, thanks to late goals from Silva and Phil Foden.

Aside from the on-field action, a pre-match image of Grealish carrying two iPhones into the FC Copenhagen ground caught the attention of fans and sparked online debate.

It is interesting to note that earlier in the season, De Bruyne had gifted all 26 members of the squad a bespoke iPhone 14 to commemorate the club’s treble success.

These specially commissioned iPhones, worth £5,000 each and totaling £130,000, were engraved with the Manchester City logo and player names.

While Grealish’s injury and the outcome of the match were the main talking points, the attention given to his two iPhones and the backstory of the bespoke iPhone gifts from De Bruyne added another layer of interest to the match and the player’s off-field activities.

This attention to detail shows the level of involvement and interest that fans have in every aspect of the game and the lives of the players.
