The players slept for just three hours before boarding the coach for their flight back to Manchester in an Etihad Airways plane painted in the club’s blue and white colours.
Grealish could be seen with his head sticking out of a window on the roof of the bus as fans cheered and cheered as they left.
Erling Haaland posted a picture of himself on his Instagram smoking a huge cigar while later shared one of him and Grealish with blue face paint adding: “Love this guy. “
After Saturday night’s match, wives and girlfriends came to the Olympic Stadium field to share in the wild celebrations.
