Everton agree deal to re-sign Grealish on loan from Man City

Everton and Manchester City have reached an agreement for Jack Grealish to rejoin Everton on a season-long loan from City. The 30-year-old England international is scheduled to undergo a medical with the club, with the deal expected to be finalized before the 23:00 BST transfer deadline on Tuesday. Grealish previously spent a significant portion of the last season at Everton on loan, contributing with two goals and six assists in 20 appearances before suffering a season-ending foot injury in January.

Grealish had been linked with other teams, including his former club Aston Villa, but his preference was to return to Everton. The club has also agreed to sign Ainsley Maitland-Niles from Lyon for £3 million and has secured the permanent move of Scotland right-back Nathan Patterson to Torino for an undisclosed fee. Everton is also close to finalizing a £40 million deal for Monaco forward Folarin Balogun, but talks for Brazil striker Richarlison from Tottenham are reportedly on hold due to personal terms.

The club's pursuit of Dutch full-back Kenny Tete from Fulham, valued at £9.4 million, appears to be off the table, as Fulham has yet to find a suitable replacement.
