Everton Omit Jack Grealish After Reported Missed Training

Overview

• Jack Grealish was left out of Everton’s matchday squad on Monday as the club confirmed a breach of discipline tied to an unauthorised failure to report for a scheduled training session.
• This is the second consecutive fixture Grealish has been omitted, a decision Moyes publicly supported while declining to provide further detail about the incident.
• Everton say Grealish has trained away from the main group at Finch Farm to work on individual conditioning while his reintegration and match fitness are reassessed.
• Unverified media reports have linked the absence to two nights of partying in London and Wilmslow, but the club has not confirmed those accounts or announced any financial penalty or loan-ending move.
• Grealish is on loan from Manchester City and has made only a handful of appearances since rejoining, leaving Everton short of a creative option and creating uncertainty over his short-term role and any contractual consequences.
