Everton have agreed a deal to re-sign Jack Grealish on a season-long loan from Manchester City.

The 30-year-old is set to undergo a medical with the Toffees, with the move expected to be completed before Tuesday’s 23:00 BST transfer deadline.

Grealish spent much of last season at Everton on loan, scoring twice and providing six assists in 20 appearances before a foot injury ended his campaign in January.

The England winger had attracted interest from several clubs, including boyhood side Aston Villa, but his preference was to return to Everton.

Everton chief executive Angus Kinnear said the club had “remained in contact” with Grealish throughout the summer.

The Toffees are looking to add to their attacking options after winger Iliman Ndiaye is expected to complete a £65m move to Manchester City.

Everton also appear close to signing Monaco and USA forward Folarin Balogun in a £40m deal, while their attempt to bring Richarlison back from Tottenham has stalled over personal terms.

Grealish joined City from Aston Villa for £100m in August 2021 but has made only two appearances for Enzo Maresca’s side this season.

He came off the bench in the Community Shield defeat by Arsenal before also featuring as a substitute in City’s Premier League win over Bournemouth.

When does the summer transfer window 2026 close?

The window opened on Monday June 15 and will shut on Tuesday September 1.

After that, every Premier League club can register a squad of up to 25 players, 17 of whom are allowed to be non-Home Grown Players.

A Home Grown Player has been registered with any club affiliated to the English or Welsh Football Association for three entire seasons or 36 months across their career before his 21st birthday, or the end of the season during which they turn 21.

Under-21 players do not count towards the 25-man limit.

What time does the Premier League transfer window shut on transfer deadline day?

The deadline is 23:00 BST in the Premier League, but clubs can have an extra two hours to file the remaining documentation if they submit a deal sheet confirming that an agreement has been reached.

The deal sheet must arrive fully completed before the transfer window closes.

For international transfers, clubs also have to comply with the FIFA Transfer Matching System deadline of midnight.

When does the 2026/27 winter transfer window open?

Can Premier League clubs sign players outside of the window?

Clubs can only add players outside of transfer windows who are free agents and if they have room in their 25-man squad.

Premier League teams can still announce deals with other clubs, but those players will not be registered to play until the window re-opens.

This means there is usually little to no movement when the window closes, with four months to wait until the window re-opens.

Players can be released by Premier League clubs at any time, but the usual rule is that they cannot sign for another side outside of the market.
