Manchester City star Jack Grealish has responded to rumours that he could feature on I'm A Celeb with an exclusive message sent to show hosts Ant and Dec.
Last weekend, I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here returned to UK television screens for the 24th series of the beloved ITV reality series.
Since starting 22 years ago, several England international icons have featured on the show, including Ian Wright, who competed in the 2019 series, and Lioness Jill Scott, who was crowned Queen of the Jungle in 2022.
And now, Grealish has reacted to rumours that he could be set to step foot in the jungle by sending a video message to iconic hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly.

In a video posted on the Ant and Dec Instagram account, Dec revealed that they had asked Grealish to appear on next year's series of I'm A Celeb and had received a video response from the England star.
Grealish said: "Hey guys, Jack here. I've heard that a few of you guys want to see me in the jungle.
"I can't lie, it is something that I'd absolutely love to do. It's a show that I've watched for years since I was little and I show that I love.
"I don't know how I'd get on in there, I don't think I'd be the best to be honest but yeah, I'd give it a go.
"Obviously not this year. I don't think Pep would be too happy if I ended up in there this year.
"But you know, never say never, could happen one day!"
Addressing the rumours, Ant claimed that he thinks that Grealish would be very good on the show before the pair began chants of 'We love you Grealish we do!'
In this year's series Coleen Rooney, wife of England legend Wayne, is competing in the jungle alongside former featherweight boxing champion and promoter Barry McGuigan.
During her time on the series, she has revealed several details of her relationship with the Manchester United icon, including that he used to write her love poems while on away days with club and country.
