Everton Target Grealish in Summer Squad Rebuild

Everton are targeting a loan move for Manchester City's Jack Grealish, who has been left out of Pep Guardiola's squad and omitted from the Club World Cup, following a decline in productivity over the past two seasons due to injuries and tactical constraints. Manchester City, who signed Grealish for £100m in 2021, may prefer a permanent sale but could consider a high-value loan deal. Everton hope their new ownership, the move to Hill Dickinson Stadium, and Grealish’s wish to remain in the north of England will give them an advantage over West Ham and Napoli, who are also interested. Manager David Moyes aims to build his team around Grealish by offering him greater creative freedom. The potential signing is part of Everton’s wider summer rebuild as they look to strengthen their squad after significant departures. Grealish’s preference for family stability in Cheshire could tip the decision in Everton’s favor.
