Bumping into Jack Grealish made a Watford 11-year-old’s day as the Manchester City squad were spotted near Watford.
Olivia was walking her dog near The Grove Hotel with dad Tino Alcorano when they spotted the Premier League champions’ number 10.
Excited enough just to see him, the young City fan was then amazed as Grealish came over and agreed to a photo.

“I love Jack Grealish and I was over the moon when he came over and allowed a selfie and a signed autograph," she said.
“He made my day. I felt so special as he went to no one else.”
Her father says she has been proudly showing off the picture to friends and family ever since it was taken on Saturday (May 25).

The team bus had been spotted outside Watford Junction on Friday as the team were staying at The Grove ahead of the FA Cup final.
Oliva was apparently left “shocked” by the 2–1 defeat to Manchester United in the final, “as we always win everything”.
The father and daughter also snapped Oscar Bobb, Phil Foden, Joško Gvardiol, Ederson, Nathan Ake, and Jeremy Doku getting on the team bus and spotted Haaland around a table with fellow players.
