Everton may have just been given the green light from Manchester City to secure Jack Grealish’s services.
Grealish has remained at Everton over recent weeks as he continued his rehabilitation on Merseyside following the end of the season.
As his current loan deal on Merseyside is set to draw to an end, Everton remain in talks with Man City to sign Grealish.
If you were Angus Kinnear who would you be going all out for this summer? 💰
Although no breakthrough has been struck just yet, it is now understood that City would be open to another loan.
Man City hand Everton Jack Grealish opportunity at another loan
Andy Burnham has urged Everton to re-sign Grealish this summer following a positive spell on loan with the Toffees.
Finances are at the centre of the talks for the 30-year-old, with just one year remaining on his current City deal.
The Athletic have now reported that City have come to the decision that they would allow Grealish to leave either on loan or permanently over the coming months.
What should Everton be willing to pay to bring back Grealish over the summer? 💰
There was a suggestion that Enzo Maresca could hand Grealish a lifeline at City, but it seems as if the winger’s future remains away from the Etihad Stadium.
In the report, it is suggested Grealish is ‘unlikely’ to be handed such an opportunity by his parent club.
With talks ongoing in the background, this will come as a real boost for Everton as the club have been offered a serious opportunity to retain Grealish’s services.
Grealish has made it clear he’d approve an Everton return after making no secret of his love for the Blues at the recent awards night.
There is no denying just how big of a fan David Moyes is when it comes to the Englishman, which will also have an influence on any negotiations for Grealish.
Everton’s finances are expected to be tight this summer meaning the opportunity at another loan for Grealish could prove the perfect solution for the Blues.
