Jack Grealish probably owes his worn, torn shoes to Aston Villa's promotion to the premier league in 2019. The shoes that Grealish was wearing attracted attention. It looked like the shoes he was wearing were torn and when asked why he was still wearing them, he answered that the worn shoes he was using gave him good luck and it was true. Just the following season he was bought by Manchester City for a transfer fee of 100 million pounds, then he signed a Puma shoe sponsorship deal worth 12 million euros per year and became the most expensive deal in football history.
