Jack Grealish missed his third straight game for Everton when David Moyes’ team travelled to Newcastle United for their Premier League 2026-27 clash tonight.
For disciplinary concerns, Jack Grealish was dropped from Everton’s squad for their Carabao Cup victory over Matthias Jaissle’s squad last Thursday.
Prior to the EFL Cup fourth-round match, the 31-year-old had skipped training without authorisation. He had also missed the previous game, a Premier League loss against Arsenal, due to sickness.
The England international, who returned to Everton on a second lucrative loan contract from Manchester City this summer, was not present as the team flew to the northeast. He was not named in the starting lineup or the bench for tonight’s clash.

Reports about Jack Grealish’s actions during a recent vacation have coincided with his absence from training. According to a report that has come to light, the winger spent two nights drinking and partying in Wilmslow and London.
These social outings happened after the Pride of Britain Awards. He was spotted with a number of teammates and former coworkers at a pub and karaoke club. Although the club hasn’t formally connected these claims to his removal, they have undoubtedly raised questions about his professional behaviour during this loan period.
Grealish has made seven appearances since returning to Everton in the summer, but this latest run of events has entirely stopped his progress. The loss of a vital creative asset like Grealish hurts the Toffees’ offensive options as they navigate a challenging time in the season, starting with the clash against Newcastle United.
