Fans praised the interaction between Grealish and the boy

It brought to an end a nine-year stint at Villa Park where he had gone from teenage hopeful to the then British record transfer.

Yet despite leaving to win Premier League titles with Man City, some Villa fans still adore him.

And that was evident in a pre-season clip where a boy in a Villa shirt ran over to Grealish – who is training and playing with Man City in the US.

As the young kid reaches the England star, Grealish says: “You a Villa fan? Do you still like me though?”

The boy nodded, before Grealish smiled and proceeded to sign his shirt as they shook hands in a lovely exchange.

Reacting to the clip, one fan said: “So refreshing to see a bloke like Grealish. Just an absolute gent.”

While another added: “Grealish honestly looks like one of the nicest guys around.”

A third replied: “He really really seems like good dude. His interactions with fans, his effort for disabled people… good and humble lad.”

And a fourth responded: “Besides his massive sexy calves he also seems to have a massive heart.”

Grealish scored just three goals and assisted only one in 36 games last season, but his campaign was plagued by injury.

But he showed signs of improvement in Man City’s pre-season friendly against Barcelona on Tuesday as he scored a second-half equaliser in a 2-2 draw.

The ex-Villa man lashed home following a driving run from Mateo Kovacic to ensure the spoils were shared in Florida.
