A recent report by Dean Jones indicates that Everton is looking to renegotiate the terms for Jack Grealish following his season-ending foot injury. The existing loan agreement includes a £50 million buy option, which Everton officials consider too steep.
They are eager to alter the arrangement, believing that the 30-year-old wishes to make Merseyside his permanent home. The report also touches on a potential return for Manchester City defender John Stones. The 31-year-old is nearing the end of his contract at the Etihad and could return to his former club without a transfer fee, assuming the Toffees’ medical team approves his fitness.

This ambitious transfer strategy places manager David Moyes in a challenging position. Securing Grealish permanently would certainly add significant creativity to the squad. However, his high salary and recent surgery require the club to be cautious with its finances.
