Jack Grealish has apologised to Everton fans after missing recent matches for breaching club discipline. The winger returned to action in a behind-closed-doors friendly against Derby County, which Everton won 4-1 at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
Reports differ on how many games he missed. The Daily Mail says two, while talkSPORT and Mundo Deportivo say four, and Mundo Deportivo adds that his last appearance came on 17 October. The Mirror reports that manager David Moyes backed the decision to leave him out.
The Sun, citing SunSport, reported that Grealish had spent two consecutive nights out drinking at a karaoke bar and a pub.
Golviva's valuation of Grealish is €12.3m, against his market value of €20m on Transfermarkt. His contract runs until June 2027, and he has made six appearances this season without scoring.
