Jack Grealish breaks Frank Lampard’s 15-year record as he becomes the leading English player for most chances created in a single Champions League season.
Lampard had held the record with 34 chances created for Chelsea in the 2007/08 Champions League campaign.
But Grealish’s impressive performance in Manchester City’s 4-0 win over Real Madrid on Wednesday evening has now put him on 35 chances created in the Champions League this term.
The former Aston Villa captain, who joined City in a £100 million deal in 2021, also has the chance to extend that tally against Inter in the Champions League final on June 10.

Grealish:
‘I am just buzzing to be in this moment. It’s so nice.
I don’t think a lot of teams would be able to do that against Real Madrid.’
‘We felt unstoppable. I don’t know what it is.
‘I saw a stat the other day about our record here in the Champions League, we have won every game here in the competition – it’s unbelievable.
‘We feel unstoppable at this season and nobody can beat us: when you see what we did tonight, and against Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig, it’s unbelievable.’
