​Man City winger Sterling: My partnership with Grealish will only get stronger

Manchester City winger Raheem Sterling admits his partnership with new signing Jack Grealish will only improve.

The duo were bright and a constant threat on the opening weekend of the new Premier League season, despite a 1-0 defeat to Tottenham away from home.

Grealish signed for City from Aston Villa for a record £100 million fee, but was unable to influence the result in a positive way against Spurs.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Sterling said: "I've played with [Grealish] a few times, it's a good one [partnership].

"It's still early days and we'll learn each other's game over the season and hopefully we can play a lot more together."
