Everton have opened talks over a deal for Jack Grealish to offer the England forward an escape route from Manchester City. Grealish, 29, will be allowed to leave the Etihad Stadium for the right deal during the summer window and is a target for David Moyes as he looks to bolster his squad ahead of the new Premier League season.

Grealish was primarily a benchwarmer last term, prompting even Guardiola to admit that it would be better for the winger to find a new club. Unsurprisingly, then, his days at Man City have been numbered for some time.
