Eagle-eyed Manchester City fans believe they spotted a hint that the club’s summer transfer business may not be over during Jack Grealish’s official unveiling. Reports have heavily linked Man City with interest in Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane in recent months.

On Monday, Grealish was presented to the City fans at the Etihad Stadium following his £100million move from Aston Villa.

Speaking to the official club website, he explained how thrilled he was to learn from Pep Guardiola and the impact he made on his decision to sign.

He said: “[Guardiola] can take my game to the next level. I will listen every day and I cannot wait to work with him.

“I’ve been here two days and the way he is in training is unbelievable. I can’t actually believe it. Pep was a massive factor in me coming here.

“The few days I’ve been here, it’s crazy to see the manager work the way he does.

“It’s no surprise how successful he’s been. Some of the tactics he has are out this world.

“I would never think of them but when you see it you see why he’s so successful.”

As part of the unveiling, Grealish took pictures around the Etihad, including in the dressing room.

After images of the 25-year-old in the City dressing room were posted online, many fans noticed something worthy of discussion.

The locker next to Grealish’s in the dressing room was vacant, with many questioning whether the locker was being left empty for the potential arrival of Kane.

One fan asked: “Who’s that space before Grealish going to be left for?”

Another tweeted: “That blank space next to him for Kane?”

A third incorporated their own lyrics to Taylor Swift’s song, ‘Blank Space’: “Because I’ve got a blank space, baby, and I’ll write you ‘Kane.’

“I see they’re keeping a free spot for kane’s name,” another eagle-eyed fan shared.

It’s doubtful Kane will be joining City before their Premier League campaign gets underway this weekend.

Tottenham head coach Nuno Espirito Santo has suggested the 28-year-old could be involved against Guardiola’s side when they clash on Sunday.

Kane is expected to return to Hotspur Way on Thursday, and Nuno has hinted that the England captain will be in his thinking.

“All the players that are in the squad are available and then it’s up to us to decide who we consider as the best options,” Nuno explained.

“All the players that are in the squad that work on a daily basis will be options for us. Then it’s up to us to decide.”
