Fabrizio Romano drops Everton-Jack Grealish update 'in the next days' after Sunderland twist
Everton face a nervous wait to see if Jack Grealish will return.
Grealish lit up the Hill Dickinson Stadium last season, forming a brilliant relationship with the supporters.
He notched two goals and six assists but a foot injury halted his campaign in January.
It seemed written in the stars that he would comeback, with David Moyes waiting to see how he had recovered before pouncing.
However, Sunderland had entered the mix with a bid that looked set to make things complicated.
A new update has dropped on the Manchester City star's future and whether the Blues will be his destination.
What is the latest on Everton and Jack Grealish?
Everton will find out their fate on Grealish shortly, it would appear
Fabrizio Romano claimed on Wednesday evening that the 30-year-old will decide his future in the coming days.
His report stated that the Toffees and Aston Villa have made contract with his camp over a move.
It is understood that the winger is keeping all options open, with Romano reporting that there is nothing concrete with Sunderland.
That last part gives encouragement that the Blues can seal a deal over their Premier League rivals.
Why Everton should be confident of sealing Grealish return?
Grealish already has the relationship with the Toffees, the fanbase, the squad and the manager.
Surely, he will be desperate to come back and feel the love from all involved with the L3 outfit once again.
The hierarchy on Merseyside are understood to be bullish on their chances of landing the veteran star.
Clearly they have had some sort on indication from the player's camp or himself that he wants to return.
His has constantly been posting on social media hinting at a potential comeback, showing where his allegiances lie.
Now, the Toffees need to do everything they can to make it happen, it would take the positive atmosphere around the club at the minute to another level.
If they can secure his signature for another season, it would give them the potential to expand on a very good start with two wins in two matches so far.
His ability, plus the emotion that it would bring to the stands, make it an absolute no brainer for the club, so it is one that they must get done before the deadline strikes.
