Jack Grealish Joins Everton on Season-Long Loan from Manchester City
Jack Grealish has expressed his excitement, stating that "there is only one place he wanted to go" after signing a season-long loan deal with Everton from Manchester City.
The 29-year-old winger becomes Everton's sixth signing of the summer, joining Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Charly Alcaraz, Thierno Barry, Mark Travers, and Adam Aznou.
Grealish revealed that discussions with Toffees manager David Moyes played a crucial role in his decision to move to Hill Dickinson Stadium. "I'm over the moon to have signed for Everton - it's massive for me, honestly. This is a great club, with great fans," he stated.
"As soon as I spoke to the manager, I knew there was only one place that I wanted to go. On social media, I've been flooded with messages from Everton supporters, which is another reason why I chose Everton. I want to say thank you to the fans for all of the messages I've received already. Thank you for all of the love and support. I hope I can repay you now, and I'm sure I will."
The England international joined Manchester City from Aston Villa in August 2021 for a British record fee of £100 million. During his time at City, he made over 150 appearances, winning three Premier League titles, the Champions League, and the FA Cup.
However, Grealish struggled for game time last season, making only seven league starts and missing out on the squad for the Club World Cup in the United States.
His move to Everton presents an opportunity to revitalize his career and take center stage at their new stadium. Additionally, Grealish aims to reclaim his spot in the England squad after expressing his disappointment last summer at being omitted from the roster for the 2024 European Championship.
