'I f*****g love you man' - Erling Haaland's X-rated message for Man City teammate Jack Grealish

Erling Haaland shared an X-rated message for Man City teammate Jack Grealish on Sunday, telling the winger he 'f*****g loves' him after lifting the Premier League trophy.

City were handed a third consecutive league title at the Etihad on Sunday, following their comfortable 1-0 win over Chelsea. Julian Alvarez scored the only goal of the game inside 12 minutes, with a much-changed Blues side able to play out the remainder of the game with little pressure.

The squad lifted the trophy at the Etihad after the game, with Erling Haaland tasting victory for the first time since joining from Borussia Dortmund last season. The Norwegian has netted an incredible 36 Premier League goals, breaking the record for the most in one season.

Amid the celebrations, Grealish was live on Sky Sports sharing his reaction to winning his second title, at which point Haaland came from behind and shouted 'I f*****g love you ya know', which was picked up by Grealish's microphone.

The former Villa man laughed but looked a little shocked while live on air, with presenter Dave Jones forced to apologise.

The relationship between Haaland and Grealish has been well-documented all season, with the pair living in the same building in central Manchester and often arriving at training together.

"We’ve got a great relationship," Grealish said of Haaland shortly before the interruption. "We come into training a lot together, we live in the same building, I’ve assisted him a few times. When you have a relationship like that off the pitch, on the pitch it makes it that much easier."
