Looking to get his career back on track after a difficult 2024-25 season with City, Grealish has been quick to endear himself to Everton supporters. The England international also set up James Garner for the Toffees' second goal of the afternoon against Brighton, meaning he has already recorded the same number of assists (two) in 2025-26 as he managed in the last two Premier League campaigns combined for Pep Guardiola's City.
