“Everton’s Transfer Dreams SHATTERED: Grealish-Level Signing COLLAPSES in Heartbreaking Twist!”

David Moyes is thrilled to welcome Jack Grealish to Merseyside in time for Everton’s Premier League opener against Leeds United.

“I think we’re getting him at a good time because he’s experienced, he knows the Premier League, and we’re all aware of the quality he can produce,” the 62-year-old said.

With the arrival of a proven winner, Everton now have the chance to use Grealish’s profile to lure more signings before the transfer window closes.

Moyes had set a target of nine new additions this summer, and the club is edging close to that figure.

However, time is running short to bring in any more players before the deadline for eligibility to face Leeds at Elland Road. Adding to the pressure, Everton have encountered another obstacle in their pursuit of one particular target.

Fatawu pursuit hits a snag

Before finalising the Grealish deal, Everton were also chasing Leicester City winger Abdul Fatawu.

This followed their withdrawal from the race to sign Tyler Dibling, with Southampton demanding £50 million.

According to Sky Sports, Everton are facing a similar impasse with Leicester’s valuation of Fatawu.

The Toffees are unwilling to meet the asking price, which could force them to abandon the chase.

Leicester, meanwhile, appear more open to selling Bilal El Khannouss, who is attracting widespread Premier League interest.

Although many Everton supporters hoped Fatawu would join, it now seems director of football Kinnear will need to revisit alternative options.

While Everton can cope without a new right winger for the immediate future, finding one will be essential for the long-term plan.

A wide pool of right-wing options

After the Dibling deal collapsed last week, Everton News revealed a six-man shortlist of wingers under consideration:

Malick Fofana

Tom Fellows

Finn Azaz

Ben Doak

Omari Hutchinson

Jack Grealish (now signed)

Fofana is a particularly ambitious target, as Bayern Munich and other Champions League clubs are interested. Nevertheless, Everton continue to explore possibilities in the Championship market.

Hutchinson’s £40 million valuation could prove too steep, potentially leading Everton to revisit their long-standing interest in Fellows.

As the clock ticks toward deadline day, Everton’s recruitment team faces crucial decisions.

The arrival of Grealish has boosted both squad quality and morale, but whether the club can secure further attacking reinforcements before the window closes remains to be seen.

One way or another, an intriguing few days lie ahead for Moyes and his side.
