Manchester City's offensive midfielder Jack Grealish is reportedly the target of two Premier League clubs, Everton and Aston Villa. According to Fabrizio Romano, both clubs have been in contact with his representatives to discuss a potential transfer. The English player, who must decide his future in the coming days, has not yet made a final decision.
A choice between his former clubs
Grealish, who joined Manchester City from Aston Villa in 2021, could be tempted by a return to the club that shaped him. His previous loan spell at Everton last season also seems to have left good memories. The player, who will turn 31 next month, is keeping all options open before making his choice. Fabrizio Romano also clarified that no concrete progress has been made with Sunderland, despite recent reports published by
The Athletic. “EXCL: Jack Grealish must decide his future in the coming days, with Everton and Aston Villa in contact with his camp. Grealish is keeping all options open before the final decision; no concrete progress is being made with Sunderland,” he posted on X.
A player still attractive despite his age
Even if his best years seem behind him, Grealish remains a uniquely talented player, capable of making a difference with his dribbling and creativity. His time at Manchester City has not always lived up to expectations, but he still possesses potential that could interest several Premier League clubs. For Aston Villa, which has lost several key players this summer, Grealish’s return could give the team a boost. With a suitable tactical setup and a manager granting him certain freedoms, he could still shine for a few more seasons in the English top flight. Everton supporters, too, would be delighted to see him wear their colors again. The player, who had a successful loan season at Everton in 2025-26, could thus opt for one of his two former clubs rather than an unexpected destination like Sunderland.
