Jack Grealish is poised to sign for Everton on loan after agreeing to leave Manchester City in an attempt to revive his stalled career.
Everton’s interest in the City midfielder was reciprocated over the weekend with Grealish accepting the opportunity to join David Moyes’s side in their first season at Hill Dickinson Stadium. The 29-year-old is due to undergo a medical on Monday and confirmation of his loan deal could be announced swiftly, providing there are no issues.
City are looking to recoup most of Grealish’s £300,000-a-week wages and Everton’s outlay could be more than £12m after a loan fee.

The £100m signing from Aston Villa has been effectively frozen out at City by Pep Guardiola and was not included in his 27-man squad for this summer’s Club World Cup.
