Jack Grealish shares the love with birthday message for Everton team-mate Jordan Pickford
Jack Grealish is clearly still all in with Everton and his teammates after what he has done for Jordan Pickford’s birthday.
Grealish was ruled out for the rest of Everton‘s season with a foot injury suffered in January, seemingly bringing his time with the Blues to an end.
However, he still seems to be hanging around with his Hill Dickinson Stadium teammates and having a good time despite his World Cup dream being pretty much over.
Thomas Tuchel may have had a dilemma had he not gotten injured, and he could have been on the plane with Pickford.
What did Grealish say to Pickford?
Grealish took to social media to share a birthday message towards his goalkeeper for club and country.
Taking to his personal Instagram story on 7 March, the Blues star shared an image with Pickford wishing him a happy birthday.
He said “happy birthday brother” with a blue heart and a heart hands emoji.
Can Everton bring Grealish back?
Grealish must surely come back to the Toffees in the summer transfer window, he clearly has loved his time on Merseyside so far.
His spell as an Everton player has seen him rediscover his love for the beautiful game after years of being hampered by Pep Guardiola’s tactical demands, that did not let him play how he wanted to.
Moyes has given the maverick his freedom back, and he would be the main asset of the team if he were to return after the end of his loan.
Whether the Friedkin Group are willing to spend £50million on a 30-year-old, the fee which is agreed within the loan deal, remains to be seen, but they should.
Grealish has performed on and off the pitch for the Blues, forming a lovely relationship with his teammates and supporters.
In an ideal world, the Toffees can negotiate a better deal with the Citizens for a permanent move, and bring him back on their terms, but they may just have to part with the figure that is already agreed.
It would probably be worth every penny, given how Grealish has bonded with everyone involved with the club and the levels that he has shown on the pitch.
