Everton is now reportedly looking to sign Grealish, who has been linked with other clubs like Napoli. Grealish's preference is to stay in England, which could make a move to Everton more appealing.
The 29-year-old midfielder wants to find a new club that suits him and his young family. A loan arrangement or a permanent transfer within the Northwest region could be an option.
Grealish may also be drawn to the prospect of playing at Everton's new Bramley-Moore Dock stadium this season.
