Everton manager David Moyes has called winger Jack Grealish's stress fracture a "big blow" for the club. The 30-year-old, on loan from Manchester City, has been a key contributor with two goals and six assists in 22 appearances. His injury comes just days after he played the full 90 minutes in a win over Aston Villa.

Grealish's form had sparked talk of an England recall and a potential permanent move this summer. However, the injury complicates any transfer plans, with Moyes stating the focus is solely on Grealish's recovery. The club is in close contact with Manchester City regarding his rehabilitation period.

The setback raises questions about Grealish's future, as he has no path back at City. His successful loan spell had been hailed as a "perfect match" by pundits. Now, both Everton and City will await his recovery before deciding on the next steps for the winger's career.
