Jack Grealish sets out Man City target after Pep Guardiola change

Jack Grealish has got his eyes firmly set on the Champions League after another heartbreaking exit for Manchester City last season.

City are yet to win the competition despite their domestic dominance, and suffered another painful exit recently at the hands of Real Madrid where they were two goals up heading into the 180th minute of the tie but contrived to lose. Grealish came off the bench in the second leg and had two brilliant efforts cleared off the line that surely would have otherwise sent the Blues through to a final with Liverpool.

Grealish has had to change his expectations since moving to City in a £100m move from Villa last summer and now has to get into the mindset of challenging for every trophy possible. As much as Pep Guardiola and his players are expected to do that, the Champions League holds particular appeal next season for Grealish - particularly after the most recent disappointment.
