The Man City winger was wearing a jacket that looked a lot like the one Rick,57, wore in the Never Gonna Give You Up music video from 1987.

In the photo shoot for Puma’s relaunch of its Palermo line, which was first introduced in the 1980s, Grealish, 28, paired the sandstone trench coat with blue trousers and white sneakers.

This month, the classic set will return to stores.

Though he possessed the appearance of a pop icon, £100 millionaire Grealish’s performance on stage was less remarkable, since he famously performed hits while intoxicated following his triple victory in June.

That follows Brummie Grealish’s £10 million sponsorship agreement with Gucci.

In addition, he inked a £10 million contract each season to represent sportswear company Puma through 2028.

Puma’s worldwide director of sports marketing and licensing, Johan Adamsson, stated: “His quick feet and personal style turn heads both on and off the pitch.”

Grealish received a six-figure payment in addition for a clothing partnership with BoohooMAN.

Brands are vying for a piece of the athlete, who has been nicknamed “the most marketable footballer since David Beckham” and has an Instagram fan page devoted to his looks.

“One of the reasons why organizations are lining up to try and work with Grealish is because he does not yet realize that he is more than just an elite level sports person, he is actually now a global brand,” brand marketing expert Andy Barr stated.

Grealish, who is rumored to make £300,000 a week at Manchester City, made history as the most expensive football player in Britain when he signed a £100 million contract to leave Aston Villa.
