Everton could pull off an impressive swoop for Jack Grealish this summer.
The Friedkin Group are set to back David Moyes to rebuild the Blues’ squad, and a move for the Manchester City man could be on the agenda.
The Toffees are in desperate need of attacking reinforcements after finishing the season with the fourth-fewest goals scored in the Premier League, behind only the three relegated teams.
Grealish has struggled at City, but he may just need a change of scenery to rediscover his best form.

Everton backed to make Grealish move
Moyes is crying out for someone who can make the difference in attack, with the likes of Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Beto struggling to find the back of the net.
MORE TOFFEES STORIES
The Toffees have been mentioned as a potential destination for the England star by the Daily Mirror (5 June) after the news that he will not be included in City’s squad for the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup.
Iconic commentator Ian Darke believes that Grealish would be a good addition for the Blues and may be willing to take a hit financially to make the switch.
Speaking exclusively to Goodison News, he said: “I think Everton is not the worst shout.
“I don’t know what or if anything is going on with it.
“I think that is quite interesting, they have got Ndiaye who plays in exactly that position, haven’t they, they could probably move Ndiaye in one, with Doucoure going.
“It is not the worst idea, I mean, Jack might be the kind of player who is willing to take a pay cut to go somewhere where he feels valued.”

Grealish can revive his career at Everton
Grealish may just need to return to being the main man, rather than a member of the supporting cast for Erling Haaland.
He can play on the left flank or as a number 10, and has the ability to open up defences with the ball at his feet, something which the Blues are sorely lacking.
He may thrive under Moyes if he is handed a share of the creative burden that Iliman Ndiaye currently holds, and it could be the marquee signing that the new owners need.
If he is willing to take a pay cut to secure a transfer, or it is a loan where Pep Guardiola‘s side pays a considerable amount of the wages, it is a no-brainer for the Hill Dickinson outfit.
