Everton furious with Jack Grealish after disciplinary breach as loan cancellation decision is reached

Everton are hugely frustrated and annoyed with Jack Grealish following a disciplinary breach which resulted in the England international being left out of their two meetings with Newcastle United, TEAMtalk understands.

The Toffees are understood to be unhappy with the circumstances surrounding Grealish’s recent absence, with the club believing the winger has let them down after being handed a significant opportunity to get his career back on track at Goodison Park.

Grealish missed Everton’s Premier League trip to Arsenal the week before, with the club insisting his absence was down to illness.

However, that came just days after the Manchester City loanee had been in London attending the Pride of Britain Awards, raising questions over his availability.

We understand that further frustration followed in the build-up to Everton’s Carabao Cup meeting with Newcastle, when Grealish missed part of a training session.

The club subsequently took the decision to suspend him from involvement in the fixture.

We are told Grealish was under the impression he had been given an additional day off, but that was not the case, contributing to his failure to report as expected.

His absence then continued into Monday’s Premier League meeting with Newcastle at St James’ Park, with a lack of fitness cited as the reason he was unavailable for Everton’s impressive victory.
