Jack Grealish transfer news: Everton approach Man City over possible loan deal for England winger
Talks are at an early stage between Everton and Man City over a possible loan for Grealish; the 29-year-old made just one Premier League start during 2024/25; Grealish's wages are thought to be worth £300,000 per week

Everton have approached Manchester City over a possible deal to sign Jack Grealish.
Talks will focus on the possibility of a season-long loan, though negotiations are at an early stage. He is a player much admired by David Moyes.
Grealish is desperate for more game time as he looks to force his way into England boss Thomas Tuchel's thinking for next summer's World Cup.
It is expected that if a deal is to materialise, it is likely to be later in the window.
He has been working with a personal trainer in a bid to ensure he is in the best possible condition for the upcoming season.

Pep Guardiola has offered no guarantees that Grealish will remain at the Etihad, and the £100m club-record signing has been struggling for regular games.
He made just one Premier League start last season, and was an unused substitute at Wembley for the FA Cup Final defeat to Crystal Palace.
However, Grealish remains one of the biggest earners at the Etihad, and it is understood that it would be difficult for Everton to afford all of his wages, which are thought to be worth £300,000 per week.
That issue will now be the focus of talks between Everton and City, as they try to reach an agreement over how his salary will be shared.
Everton confirm Dewsbury-Hall signing
Everton have confirmed the signing of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall from Chelsea on a five-year deal.
Sky Sports News reported earlier this week that the fee is an initial £25m plus add-ons that could increase it to around £29m.
Dewsbury-Hall made 36 appearances for Chelsea last season and featured in every game on their way to the Conference League title. He also won the Club World Cup with the Blues this summer.
He is Everton's fifth signing this summer, with David Moyes regularly expressing his need for more additions ahead of the new season.
