Gareth Southgate’s troops take on Spain in tonight’s final at the Olympiastadion in Berlin.
One Spanish superstar – Carlos Alcaraz – was in action this afternoon in the final of the prestigious SW19 tournament.
And Grealish – who channelled his inner Southgate with his outfit – had one of the best seats in the house as the Spaniard demolished Novak Djokovic to retain his title.
Alcaraz defeated the Serbian slugger 6-2 6-2 7-6 to become only the NINTH man in the Open Era to defend the trophy.
Grealish – like many other footie fans in attendance at Centre Court – will no doubt have been thrilled that Djokovic offered little resistance to Alcaraz.
That’s because he won’t have to perform a last-gasp dash to get in front of a screen to watch tonight’s match.
Being able to take in the Wimbo final in person will be the smallest of consolations for Grealish after missing out on the Euros.
Grealish hasn’t spoken at length about his omission from the squad, writing “Good luck to the lads” on his Instagram in the build-up to the Three Lions’ Group C opener against Serbia.
Arsenal and England midfielder Declan Rice said of the duo: “They’ve all been so supportive.

“Don’t get me wrong, it is tough because the lads would have loved them [to be part of the squad].
“They’re such big characters and have played such big parts of us in England.
“It would be easy for them to not message and be bitter, but they’re not like that at all.
“They’ve been so happy, so full of support [with] messages FaceTimes. I’ve been having a laugh with them and they’re so happy for us.
“Like I said, it’s gutting because they’ve not been here with us on this journey, but they’ve all played massive arts in getting us to where we are now.
“So whatever happens on Sunday, they’re fully a part of it with us as well.”
