Pep Guardiola responds to Man City players’ night out – ‘Didn’t invite me’
Grealish was filmed on a night out alongside Kyle Walker and Riyad Mahrez.
A clip posted on video platform TikTok shows the England sensation being held while he walks outside the establishment at night.
A person in the background can be heard saying: “Jack’s burst, he’s not allowed inside, look at him, Jack’s burst.”
Several individuals are surrounding Grealish in the clip, in which it is claimed he was denied entry. That has yet to be substantiated.

Man City have since insisted that Grealish was not drunk and that the trio later met friends for dinner.
Guardiola has repeated that line in his Tuesday press conference but joked that he will fine the players for not inviting him.
“So upset. They didn’t invite me. Next time they will invite me,” the City boss quipped to journalist.
“The video didn’t show what happened. Dinner together, sober. They were all perfect but they will be fined because they didn’t invite me.”
Express Sport has contacted Man City for further comment.
City paid a club-record £100m fee to take Grealish from Aston Villa in the summer and he has enjoyed a mixed campaign, scoring three goals in 24 appearances.
“I’ve done okay so far. I’ve got so much more to give. It’s been so much more difficult than I thought it was going to be,” Grealish told Sky Sports in December.
“I’m still learning and adapting. I’ve heard some people take a year to adapt here so maybe it will be the same for me. I want to score more and set up more goals next year.
“It’s crazy because the standards here are so high on and off the pitch. It’s unbelievable and it’s why they have been so successful over the years.”
