Manchester City attacker Jack Grealish has been linked with a move to Everton in this summer's transfer window.

The England international's big-money move from Aston Villa has not reaped the dividends Manchester City thought that it would.

Grealish has become a fringe player under Pep Guardiola and needs to leave to secure regular game time.

David Moyes wants to build a team around Grealish

According to The Independent (28 July), David Moyes is willing to build his team around Grealish.

This would mean offering the 29-year-old more freedom than he's had at the Etihad Stadium to express himself.

Sources claim that Everton believe that they can sign Grealish ahead of Napoli despite the Italian side showing an interest.

That's because he would prefer staying in the north of England rather than moving to another country.

He had a daughter with his long-term partner, Sasha Attwood, in September and is keen for stability.

Should he join the Merseyside outfit, he could stay in Cheshire and also play regularly in the Premier League ahead of the World Cup next year.

Grealish would be an important addition for Everton

Grealish would be a transformative signing for Everton, bringing creativity and flair to their attack.

Despite limited starts at Manchester City, his ability to dribble, create chances and carry the ball under pressure remains elite.

The Toffees, struggling for attacking spark, would benefit from his versatility as a winger or No. 10, complementing their counter-attacking style under Moyes.

Grealish’s Premier League experience and leadership could galvanise a young squad and help them meet their expectations. His work rate and defensive contributions also suit the system, making him a marquee addition.
