Everton have initiated discussions with Manchester City regarding a potential season-long loan move for winger Jack Grealish, according to David Ornstein.
The 29-year-old England international, who has struggled for consistent game time at City in recent seasons, is the subject of interest from the Toffees as they look to bolster their attacking options.

Difficult Deal
The proposed deal is described as complex, with no guarantee of completion, but negotiations are underway between the two clubs. Grealish, who joined Manchester City from Aston Villa in 2021 for a then-British record £100 million, has made 149 appearances for the Premier League champions, scoring 15 goals and providing 22 assists. However, his playing time has been limited in recent campaigns due to competition from other attacking talents and occasional injury setbacks.
Everton, under manager David Moyes, are keen to add creativity and flair to their squad as they aim to improve on last season’s mid-table finish. Grealish’s versatility, experience, and ability to unlock defences could provide a significant boost to the Merseyside club, though financial and logistical hurdles may complicate the transfer.
While the talks are in their early stages, the prospect of Grealish joining Everton on loan would represent a bold statement of intent from the club. Fans will be eagerly awaiting further developments as both sides work to navigate the intricacies of the deal.
