Everton are interested in a move for Jack Grealish, but a deal could be difficult given how much interest there is in the Manchester City outcast.
Grealish will leave City this summer after falling out of favour under Pep Guardiola, and there is no shortage of suitors.
Everton are keen on adding more flair and creativity to their attack, and Grealish could be the perfect addition if they can convince him to join on a loan deal.
However, it now appears that Grealish could be headed elsewhere, despite Everton’s interest in him as a statement signing.

Grealish could prefer transfer abroad
While Everton could be the perfect move for Grealish to revive his career, he may choose to have a completely fresh start outside of the Premier League.
MORE TOFFEES STORIES
Former Man City player Stuart Pearce was speaking on talkSPORT (9 June) about Grealish’s possible move to another Premier League side, when transfer insider Alex Crook told him that this may be an unlikely scenario.
“I’ve just got a hunch, Stuart, that he might fancy a move abroad,” Crook told Pearce.

“I know Napoli have some interest in him. They’re Italian champions and can offer Champions League football and maybe a complete change of scenery may be best for Jack Grealish.”
“I think there’s definitely interest from Everton, but in terms of wages, City may have to compromise.”
Grealish would be a coup for Everton
Grealish has spent his entire career in England, and he may need a move abroad to help spark him back into life after two difficult years since winning the treble.
Playing under Moyes at Everton could be beneficial for him, given how several attacking players such as Beto have improved since the manager returned to Merseyside.
However, if there are offers from Champions League clubs abroad, then Grealish may be tempted to move away instead, while a return to Aston Villa could be on the cards.
It would be a huge coup if Everton can convince the 29-year-old to join them instead, but as it stands, this looks unlikely despite the interest from the Toffees.
