Everton signed Jack Grealish on a season-long loan from Manchester City on deadline day. This marks the second consecutive season the 30-year-old midfielder will play for the club. During his previous stint in the 2025-26 campaign, Grealish made significant contributions before a season-ending foot injury in January. Data from his time at the club showed that Everton maintained a higher win percentage and earned more points per game when he appeared in the lineup. Although his goal contribution remained consistent, he ranked near the top of the squad for assists, fouls won, and touches in the opposition penalty area. He remains at the club following the departure of Iliman Ndiaye, who moved to Manchester City.

"One positive on a difficult deadline day for Everton was the loan signing of Jack Grealish for a second successive season from Manchester City. Grealish proved to be a popular addition to the Everton squad in 2025-26 before a stress fracture to his foot ended his campaign after a 1-0 win at Aston Villa in January. While Everton's goal output was broadly the same with and without Grealish, their win percentage and points-per-game tallies were both significantly higher with the 30-year-old in the side.
