Ben Foster is convinced Jack Grealish will impress next season whether that is with Everton or another club.
Everton are set to see Grealish return to Manchester City at the end of the campaign following his season-long loan stint at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
There is an expectation for Everton and Man City to renegotiate terms for Grealish, with a reported £50m buy clause included in the current agreement.
The Toffees are going to need to see that figure dramatically reduced if they are to bring Grealish back for next season.

Jack Grealish expected to return stronger after Everton injury
Alan Stubbs is urging Everton to sign Grealish permanently in the summer after he returned six assists and two goals in his 20 appearances.
Speaking on The Fozcast, Foster has shared his belief that whoever signs Grealish for next season will get the very best out of the 30-year-old.

“Man City’s loss will be whoever he signs for, again, like we saw at Everton this season,” said Foster.
“If he does stay at Everton beyond that, or whoever he signs for, I think we’ll see the best of Jack Grealish next season.”
Grealish will turn 31 shortly after the new season starts, which may be why Everton are believed to be keen to sign Grealish on loan again.
It is likely that the winger’s season has been ended due to the surgery he has recently undergone.
With that in mind, any club that is interested in Grealish will not be looking to pay a considerable fee for the forward over the summer.
However, there is a belief that Grealish would love to remain at Everton permanently.
The risk any side faces signing Jack Grealish this summer
Suffering the injury that he did may prove a big concern to a number of clubs over the summer as Grealish’s future hangs in the balance.
Former manager Sam Allardyce does not think Everton will sign Grealish permanently on the back of the injury.
It is going to prove a risk for any side to sign a soon-to-be 31-year-old on the back of a significant setback.
However, Moyes is already demonstrating his displeasure with his current options as he plays central midfielder Harrison Armstrong in Grealish’s position.
Moyes is a huge fan of Grealish, but there will be a lot of factors that play into any potential move this summer.
