FootballGrealish's 'healthy bar'
Sports Brief has previously reported that Grealish built a bar in his multi-million dollar house weeks after going on a four-day bender to celebrate Manchester City's historic season.
City became only the second English side in history to complete the elusive treble after beating Inter Milan in the UEFA Champions League final.
