Overview

• Manchester City confirmed that Grealish has joined Everton on a season-long loan with an option to buy for around £50 million next summer.
• Everton agreed to meet the winger’s reported £300,000-per-week salary to finalise the move after City struggled to secure a permanent sale.
• The 29-year-old made just seven Premier League starts in 2024/25 and was omitted from City’s Club World Cup squad, signalling Pep Guardiola’s reduced role for him.
• Grealish has cited the need for regular first-team minutes to rebuild his form and challenge for a spot in England’s World Cup squad.
• The signing represents a major boost for Everton as they begin their first season at the new Hill Dickinson Stadium under David Moyes.
