- Jack Grealish was seen out with Man City team-mates in video posted online
- Clip appeared to show England international being refused entry to a German beer cellar in Manchester city centre
- Grealish was previously dropped ‘for not being in the right condition’ after a night out

Footage has emerged of Manchester City and England star Jack Grealish appearing worse for wear, apparently being refused entry from a bar on a night out on Sunday.
In a clip shared on TikTok, the £100million star is seen on a night out with team-mates Kyle Walker and Riyad Mahrez in the vicinity.
He is being helped by another member of the entourage who is supporting him by linking arms.
The video posted by Mizormalc is captioned: ‘Man like Jacky too drunk to get in’.
The person filming can also be overheard saying: ‘Jack’s burst, he’s not allowed inside, look at him, Jack’s burst.’
Grealish is seen in a white hoodie outside the Albert Scholss – a Bavarian beer cellar in Manchester city centre – with a number of other people around him. He appears to have a brief exchange of words and then walks away.

City say the video was taken at 7pm on Sunday night, and that none of the players broke a curfew because they had a day off on Monday, ahead of training today and Wednesday night’s home Premier League match against Brentford.
The club also refutes any suggestion that the players were drunk and insist it was their own decision not to go into the packed Albert Schloss.
The midfielder is certainly risking the ire of his manager Pep Guardiola less than two months after he was dropped along with Phil Foden for ‘not turning up to a recovery session in the right condition’.
They were benched by the manager for a game and afterwards he revealed it was not simply a matter of rotating his squad.

Grealish is risking the anger of his manager Pep Guardiola, who dropped him in December
The Spaniard had allowed his team some time to let their hair down after a seven-goal thrashing of Leeds in December.
Guardiola was away from the club at the time having attended Serio Aguero’s retirement announcement, but other staff members were left unimpressed by Foden and Grealish’s behaviour.
After benching the duo, Guardiola explained: ‘I decided this team because they deserved to play — these guys and not the other ones.

‘At Christmas time I pay a lot of attention to behaviour on and off the pitch. And when (behaviour) off the pitch is not proper, they are not going to play.’
Grealish is no stranger to off-the-pitch scrapes and made headlines back in March 2020 having crashed his car into two stationary vehicles after a party held during lockdown.
The incident happened just hours after Grealish posted a video urging them to ‘Protect the NHS. Stay home. Save lives.’
He was banned from driving for nine months and fined £82,499.

Grealish was also dropped from Villa selection by then-manager Remi Garde in 2015, after a boozy night out at Manchester nightclub Panacea.
The former Aston Villa captain has endured a slow start to life at City following his record-breaking move to the Etihad.
He has made 24 appearances in all competitions for Guardiola’s side, managing three goals and three assists in that time.
