Jack Grealish will be on the move soon, but it may not be back to Everton, who are going to struggle to pay for the winger.

Jack Grealish started last season on loan with Everton really well, and it looked very likely that they would end up signing the Man City winger for decent money this summer, if not the full £50m buy option in his loan deal.

But injuries in the second half of the season changed the picture, and Everton’s financial situation has made a big deal even less likely.

Everton’s budget unlikely to convince City to sell them England winger

Wayne Veysey of Football Insider claims that Everton are only going to be willing to pay between £5m and £10m for Grealish on a permanent deal this summer.

“Everton simply do not have the money to splash on top players in the transfer window,” he writes.

Man City are likely to laugh off that offer – but they also know they want Grealish’s big wages off their books.

If Everton can’t cough up, there’s bound to be talk about a move back to his old club Aston Villa, who have returned to the Champions League and should have a bit more spending money than the Toffees.
