Overview
- Everton and Manchester City confirmed late Tuesday that Grealish has rejoined Everton on a season-long loan after the winger completed a medical.
- Multiple reports say Everton will pay the bulk of Grealish’s reported £300,000-a-week wages and a small loan fee to secure the deal.
- With one year remaining on his City contract, the loan is being framed as effectively ending Grealish’s playing future at Manchester City and opening the door to a permanent move when his deal runs out.
- Grealish, who recovered from a stress-fracture last season, said he is happy to return and is ready to train, with Everton indicating he could be available for immediate selection for Sunday’s match.
- The transfer came as part of late dealings between the clubs, including Iliman Ndiaye’s move to City, and leaves Everton actively reshaping their attack while they pursue further deadline-day business.
