Inside Jack Grealish and Stefan Savic's bitter feud after threat led to new nickname

Jack Grealish has been nicknamed ‘Peaky Jack’ by some Manchester City team-mates after his bitter feud with Stefan Savic which started back in the first leg.

Grealish and Savic clashed for a second time in stormy scenes in the closing stages of Manchester City's Champions League quarter-final at Atletico Madrid. But Savic had Grealish in his sights in the first leg in Manchester when the £100million man came on as sub.

Grealish came up directly against Savic on the same side of the pitch after replacing Raheem Sterling. The Montenegro defender, 31, had a go at Grealish by telling him: “I’ll have you in Madrid”. Grealish responded that he was looking forward to the second leg and wasn’t afraid of anyone.
