The English footballer’s deal is set until the end of the current season and includes a purchase option for £50 million. In the Toffees’ squad, Jack will wear number 18 on his jersey.

“I’m thrilled to have signed a contract with Everton — it’s a huge occasion for me, to be honest. This is a wonderful club with fantastic fans.

As soon as I spoke to the coach, I realized there was only one place I wanted to go. Everton fans flooded my social media with messages, and that’s another reason I chose Everton.

I want to thank the fans for all the messages I’ve already received. Thank you for all the love and support. I hope I can repay you, and I’m sure I will,” Grealish stated.
