Jack Grealish reports his foot surgery is progressing well, having recovered from a stress fracture that ended his season. The 30‑year‑old England midfielder, currently on loan at Everton, feels "really good" after a 10‑week Zoom check‑in with his surgeon.

His comeback has seen him make 22 appearances for Everton this campaign, netting two goals and supplying six assists. The positive update comes on the eve of the summer transfer window, when the club is eyeing a permanent deal.

Everton’s interest hinges on a fee lower than Manchester City’s estimated £50m valuation. With a year left on his contract, Grealish’s return could prove pivotal for the club’s midfield depth.

The loan club praised the support he received during his injury, highlighting staff, teammates and manager as instrumental to his rehabilitation.
