Grealish has quickly settled at Goodison Park after making a surprise loan switch from to Everton this summer. Against Wolves, the winger set up for the opener and was pivotal in the build-up to Iliman Ndiaye’s strike before providing the assist for Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall’s winner. That performance made him the first Everton player to record two assists in consecutive games for his new side, and Haaland is loving his close friend’s resurgence.

On Snapchat, Haaland posted a snap with the caption: “Jack De Bruyne does it again for Everton.”

For Grealish, this represents a much-needed resurgence after struggling for game time at Manchester City last season, where he made just seven league starts. Everton have given him the platform to rediscover his creativity and confidence, instantly making him a central figure under David Moyes. His early form suggests he could be one of the signings of the season if his momentum continues, and he could also present a selection headache for Thomas Tuchel for the 2026 .

Everton fans will be eager to see if Grealish can maintain this electric start as they look to push for a stronger Premier League campaign. His creativity could prove decisive in lifting the Toffees away from relegation scraps and into mid-table safety. For City, his form raises questions about whether they might regret letting him leave, even temporarily.
