Everton given boost in pursuit of Jack Grealish as Toffees step up efforts to sign playmaker - with Man City's £300,000-per-week outcast not part of Pep Guardiola's plan this season

Everton have been given a boost in their pursuit of Jack Grealish as the Manchester City outcast appears not to be part of Pep Guardiola's plans this season.

Daily Mail Sport previously reported that Fenerbahce were knocked back with an ambitious move for the England international.

In June, we revealed how the Merseyside club were monitoring the situation with the former Aston Villa man, who would become a marquee signing as they mark their move to a new stadium.

Now, an approach has been made over the possibility of a season-long loan switch for Grealish, who is thought to be on around £300,000-a-week at City.
