Jack Grealish has said that Manchester City teammate Kevin De Bruyne is the best creator in the world.

In a Q&A with Erling Haaland for Optus Sport, the Englishman gave his two cents on the £54 million (Eurosport) man.

It’s fair to say that Jack Grealish holds Kevin De Bruyne in extremely high esteem.

Branded as ‘unbelievable’ by Grealish, the 32-year-old has been renowned for his uncanny ability to get loads of assists and create a bucketload of chances for his teammates over the years.

After all, the Belgian playmaker is the only player to have equalled Thierry Henry’s record assist haul of 20 in the Premier League, levelling the feat during the 2019/2020 season.

Now, Jack Grealish has lauded Kevin De Bruyne for his remarkable chance-creation ability.

“Kev’s the best goal creator in the world, isn’t he?”, he simply said to Erling Haaland.

It’s safe to say that not many, if any fans, pundits or current players would even disagree with this opinion.

The Belgian is the best creator of his generation

Manchester City megastar Jack Grealish is spot on and it would be fair to even question if any player of his generation could even claim to have bettered Kevin De Bruyne as a creator.

For starters, the range of final balls that the treble-winner has in his locker are second to none.

To add to that, De Bruyne’s incredible crossing from the right-hand side has a sense of inevitability that it will lead to a goal in a way that does not apply to many players even in the history of the game.

Add this to the fact that the midfield maestro has been the world’s best chance creator for almost a decade and the case makes itself.
