Everton Confident on Grealish Move Despite £50m Asking Price

Everton are confident they can secure Jack Grealish permanently, even though Manchester City has set a £50m asking price. The club is open to a lower offer.

Everton’s bid for Jack Grealish, who returned on loan from Manchester City, is gaining momentum as the club believes a permanent deal can be reached for less than the £50m option. The player’s 22 appearances yielded two goals and six assists, but his creative resurgence under David Moyes has made him a valuable target.

While the club’s finances have improved with the move to Hill Dickinson Stadium, Grealish’s £300,000‑a‑week wage remains a key factor. Everton is reportedly aiming for a figure closer to £20m, balancing value, longevity and fit.
