LONDON (Reuters) - Leicester City could be facing the Premier League's first 100 million pound ($139.29 million) player when they meet Manchester City in Saturday's Community Shield at Wembley but that will just be added motivation for manager Brendan Rodgers.

Media reports have suggested Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola could give England playmaker Jack Grealish, signed from Aston Villa for a Premier League record on Thursday, a first outing in the curtain-raiser to the season.
