Everton are looking to make Jack Grealish their sixth summer signing and after a major development in their pursuit, are increasingly confident of getting their man

According to The Times reporter Paul Joyce, the conversations have gathered pace as Everton weighs the cost of taking on a player whose weekly wages stand at £300,000 [$403,470], a figure City hopes to recover almost in full over the course of a season-long loan worth around £12m [$16m].

Jack Grealish has reportedly approved a summer move away from Manchester City after being exiled by Pep Guardiola. Guardiola sanctioned Man City’s record-breaking £100m move for Grealish back in 2021 and viewed the England star as an integral member of his squad during his first two seasons at the Etihad Stadium.
