Manchester City's Jack Grealish has emerged as a shock transfer target for Everton, with the Toffees reportedly keen on securing the England international's services this summer.
The 28-year-old winger has struggled for consistent game time under Pep Guardiola this season, sparking speculation about his future at the Etihad Stadium.
Grealish's Potential Everton Move
Everton's new ownership is believed to be preparing a significant summer transfer budget as they look to rebuild their squad following a difficult Premier League campaign. Grealish's potential arrival would represent a major coup for the Merseyside club.
Despite his limited minutes at City this term, Grealish remains one of English football's most creative talents, with his ability to unlock defences potentially transforming Everton's attacking options.
Why Everton Want Grealish
- Proven Premier League quality
- Creativity in final third
- Big-game experience
- Commercial appeal
The former Aston Villa captain would bring leadership and top-flight experience to Sean Dyche's side, having won multiple trophies during his time at Manchester City.
Potential Obstacles to the Deal
Any move would likely depend on several factors, including:
- Manchester City's asking price
- Grealish's willingness to leave
- Everton's ability to meet wage demands
- Competition from other clubs
With Everton needing to comply with Premier League profit and sustainability rules, the deal would require careful financial planning from the club's hierarchy.
Should the transfer materialise, it would represent one of the most surprising moves of the summer window and signal Everton's ambition under their new owners.
