He's already one of the highest paid footballers in the country, and Jack Grealish is set to add even more cash to his vast earnings.

The Manchester City star, 28, showed off the first image from his new Pepsi ad campaign after signing a deal worth a reported seven figures with the drinks company.

Grealish, who signed for City in 2022 in a record £100 million transfer, has already filmed the campaign alongside footballer-turned-actor Vinnie Jones, according to The Sun.

It's the latest big-money brand deal for the sportsman, who has already collaborated with Bose and German sportswear brand Puma, in a £10 million deal.

The forward, who won the Champions League, Premier League, Club World Cup and the FA Cup with City, is also a brand ambassador for Gucci.

A source told the publication in February: 'Jack is banking another million with his new Pepsi deal. It's for a new advertising campaign with Vinnie Jones who has also been signed up.

'Both of them have filmed their parts for the advert and it'll be seen by fans later this year.

'Jack is worth every penny as far as Pepsi are concerned because everything he touches turns to gold. It's a really fun advert, and Jack and Vinnie are following in the footsteps of other big players like David Beckham and Lionel Messi.'

Sharing the image on his social media profiles, Grealish captioned the photo: 'Thrilled to join the Pepsi squad (fire emoji) (football emoji)'.

David famously fronted a series of Pepsi campaigns during his football heyday, worth a reported £2 m per year.
