Overview
- Grealish has been omitted from Everton matchday squads since Oct. 17 after missing a required training session and being cited by the club for a breach of discipline.
- The winger has returned to Everton’s Finch Farm on a tailored programme and is expected to rejoin full first‑team training after the international break with potential availability for the Brentford game on Nov. 23.
- Everton are reported to be assessing whether to terminate his season‑long loan in January, a move that sources say would likely carry a cost rather than allowing the club to send him back to Manchester City for free.
- Manager David Moyes has left a conditional route back open, saying Grealish can earn selection if he works hard in training and meets club standards.
- The combination of the disciplinary episode, Everton’s cautious spending under The Friedkin Group, and Grealish’s contract expiry next summer has sharply reduced the odds of a permanent Everton transfer and prompted speculative interest from Spanish clubs.
