Jack Grealish says his recovery from the operation he had on his season-ending foot injury is going extremely well and that his surgeon is delighted with the progress.<\/p>\n

The 30-year-old England midfielder, who is on loan at Everton, had the operation on a stress fracture 10 weeks ago.<\/p>\n

He suffered the injury during a 1-0 win<\/a> against his former club Aston Villa in January.<\/p>\n

“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.<\/p>\n

“So for me, it’s happy days and so good to hear news like that.”<\/p>\n

Grealish has made 22 appearances in all competitions for Everton this season, scoring twice and providing six assists.<\/p>\n

“As a footballer it’s always difficult being injured,” he said.<\/p>\n

“I came to the Merseyside derby game and it got me a bit emotional, because its something I miss doing so much.”<\/p>\n

He has a year left on his Manchester City contract, and BBC Sport previously reported<\/a> that Everton would be interested in signing him on a permanent basis if they can negotiate a lower price than City’s rough valuation of \u00a350m.<\/p>\n

“I can’t thank [Everton] enough for the way they’ve been with me since I’ve been injured – they’ve been brilliant. From the staff, to the players, to the manager,” he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jack Grealish says his recovery from the operation he had on his season-ending foot injury is going extremely…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":423237,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[61,60,112],"class_list":["post-423236","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/423236","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=423236"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/423236\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/423237"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=423236"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=423236"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=423236"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
