‘Emotional’ Everton star Jack Grealish delivers update on his recovery from surgery

Everton midfielder Jack Grealish has revealed that his rehabilitation following surgery on a season-ending injury is progressing better than expected in a hugely encouraging update. The England midfielder, currently on loan at Everton from Manchester City, has been sidelined since January after suffering a serious foot injury.

The 30-year-old England international underwent an operation ten weeks ago to repair a stress fracture sustained during a 1-0 victory over his former club, Aston Villa. The injury was a significant blow to Everton, but the latest medical reports suggest a smooth path to recovery. Speaking about his current status, Grealish expressed his relief at the feedback he has received from medical professionals. “I feel really good in myself now. I had a 10-week Zoom call with the surgeon, who said it couldn’t be looking any better at this stage,” he told BBC Sport. “So for me, it’s happy days and so good to hear news like that.”
