Overview
- Grealish is unavailable for both league meetings between Everton and Manchester City under the Premier League’s loan restrictions.
- The rule also covers the FA Cup but not the Carabao Cup or UEFA competitions, as shown by João Cancelo facing City with Bayern in 2023.
- Pep Guardiola praised Grealish’s impact at Everton and suggested City could consider a return in future, though no decision has been made.
- The winger has started brightly on Merseyside with one goal and four assists in early league matches during his season-long loan.
- Everton reportedly hold a £50m option to buy, with local debate over affordability, while David Moyes says the team will adjust in Grealish’s absence.
