Expanded Interest of a Premiership Football Club in Jack Grealish intensifies post rejection of £50m offer for Tyler Dibling
Grealish on the Brink of Loan Move to Everton
Jack Grealish is reportedly on the verge of completing a season-long loan move from Manchester City to Everton. The deal, which is currently in the final stages of negotiation, sees Grealish set to earn around £90,000 per week, with Manchester City covering the remainder of his wages [2][3][4].
The move comes as no surprise, given Grealish's diminished role at Manchester City this season. He made only one Premier League start in 2024/25 and is not part of Pep Guardiola's plans [1]. Everton, on the other hand, are eager to boost their attacking options, and Grealish appears optimistic about the transfer [2].
Everton's interest in Grealish has been evident throughout the transfer window, and they now seem closest to securing him, with other clubs such as Napoli, Fenerbahçe, Tottenham Hotspur, West Ham, and Aston Villa having shown some interest [2][3][5]. The loan deal may also include an option to buy next season, according to some reports [4].
Meanwhile, Everton have agreed a £30million deal with Chelsea for midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, and the fixture between the two teams will mark the inaugural match at Everton's new 52,769-capacity Hill Dickinson Stadium [6].
As Everton prepare for the new season, they will face newly-promoted Leeds away on August 16. Their first home match will be against Brighton on August 22 [7]. The club has already bolstered its squad with the arrivals of Thierno Barry, Adam Aznou, and Mark Travers this summer [8].
However, Everton's attempts to strengthen their squad have not been without challenge. They have seen multiple bids for Southampton winger Tyler Dibling rejected, and Southampton made a £50million counter-offer for Dibling, consisting of an initial £45million plus £5million in add-ons and a 25 per cent sell-on clause [9].
As the transfer window draws to a close, Everton are expected to turn their attention to Manchester City's Jack Grealish, with the potential to claim a significant summer signing in the form of the England international [10]. If completed, Dewsbury-Hall's arrival would take Everton's spending to £80million ahead of the new season [11].
This transfer would mark the end of Grealish's four-year tenure at Manchester City, four years after he completed a £100million move from Aston Villa [12]. It remains to be seen whether Grealish will be able to regain his form and become a key player for Everton in the upcoming season.

- As the 2024/25 season approaches, Everton's squad bolstering venture has faced challenges, with multiple bids for Southampton winger Tyler Dibling being rejected by Southampton.
