Comedian Jack Whitehall recalls his big night out doing shots with the Manchester City squad over the summer.

Jack Whitehall has spoken about his big night out doing shots with the Manchester City squad over the summer.

The side earned an impressive treble last season, winning the Premier League title, the FA Cup and the Champions League for the first time in their history.

After the latter victory, some members of the team - headed up by Jack Grealish - went on a now-infamous multi-day party and were joined in Ibiza by comedian Whitehall.

"We had this amazing moment where we were all doing shots on the dancefloor," he recalled to Russell Howard on his Wonderbox podcast.

"The best thing about it was you saw Erling Haaland, who had one drink. He was careful sipping all evening and was totally composed.

"You had Rodri, and Ruben Dias, screening their VIP area like they do on the pitch. It definitely felt like they'd applied some tactics to how they were going to keep themselves safe in the club.

"And then you had Grealish just loose as a goose in the middle of all it. He was still going three days later, it's so commendable."

He continued: "I literally had to go and lock myself in a room and sleep for two days.

"I was not right for a week. Jack Grealish was in Manchester downing pints and singing songs at 9am the following morning.

"He has the talent of Gary Lineker on the pitch and Wayne Lineker off it."
