The dazzling beginnings of Jack Grealish in Everton have already sparked strong reactions.
The Manchester City superstar, Erling Haaland, nicknamed it “Jack de Bruyne” after a marking new performance. The English international recorded two additional assists in Everton's victory against the Wolves, bringing his total to four in just two games and arousing flattering comparisons with Kevin de Bruyne.

Grealish returns in force
Grealish quickly joined Goodison Park after being loaned by surprise from Manchester City to Everton this summer. Against the Wolves, the winger served Beto for the opening of the score and played a crucial role in the preparation of the goal of Iliman Ndiaye before issuing the decisive pass on the victorious goal of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall. This performance makes him the first Everton player to make two assists in consecutive first League matches for his new team, and Haaland is delighted with the return in force of his close friend.
On Snapchat, Haaland published a cliché with the following legend: “Jack de Bruyne does it again for Everton.”
For Grealish, this is a good return in force after having struggled to get playing time in Manchester City last season, where he was only established seven times in the league. Everton allowed him to regain his creativity and confidence, making him an essential figure under the direction of David Moyes. Its initial shape suggests that it could be one of the flagship recruits of the season if its dynamics continue, and it could also represent a puzzle for Thomas Tuchel in terms of selection for the 2026 World Cup.
Everton supporters will be impatient to see if Grenish will manage to maintain this dazzling start to the season and will try to strengthen in the Premier League. His creativity could prove to be decisive to get the tuffes out of the relegation area and hoist them in the middle of the table. For City, its form raises questions: could you regret its departure, even temporary?
