Aston Villa captain Jack Grealish constantly watches Kevin De Bruyne to improve his own game.
The Manchester City playmaker has been one of the Premier League’s best players for several years.
“De Bruyne is my favourite player,” Grealish told UMM. “I think he is probably the most perfect footballer in the Prem. I try and take little bits really out of his game.
“Although I had a good season last year, if you actually looked at it my big chances created weren’t as high as other people in my position.
“This year my expected assists I think is the highest, and my big chances created is up there as well, so that’s what I wanted to improve on, and that was obviously really looking at De Bruyne and his game and what he does.”
