وفق Fabrizio Romano Everton had approached مانشستر سيتي to initiate talks over a potential loan deal for their out-of-favour star Grealish. The Toffees informed City that they are willing to cover a part of the player’s £300,000-a-week wages, although they did not discuss any option of buying in future.
talkSPORT now reports that the Cityzens will not agree on any loan deal unless the interested club agrees to cover the full salary of Grealish for the 2025-26 campaign. Grealish, who still has two years left in his current contract, fell out of favour under Pep Guardiola last season and has now accepted that an exit from Etihad Stadium is inevitable.
Apart from the Toffees, توتنهام Hotspur and Napoli are also interested in signing the إنجلترا international, while he recently turned down an offer from Jose Mourinho’s Fenerbahce.
The 29-year-old missed out on playing for Guardiola’s side in their first pre-season friendly, behind closed doors, against Preston earlier this week, and he is unlikely to travel with the team to إيطاليا, where City face sister club Palermo in another preparatory game on Saturday
