Everton to host Coventry City amid Jack Grealish disciplinary absence

Everton manager David Moyes has confirmed that Jack Grealish remains unavailable for Friday’s Premier League match against Coventry City. The 31-year-old midfielder, currently on loan from Manchester City, was excluded from the squad following a breach of club discipline, reportedly involving an unauthorised absence from training.

Moyes stated that while the club is working with Grealish, no specific timeline for his return has been established. The midfielder has already missed recent fixtures against Newcastle United. Meanwhile, Everton enters the match in seventh place, looking to build on recent victories.

Coventry City, managed by Frank Lampard, arrives at Hill Dickinson Stadium facing significant injury concerns. The squad is reportedly missing several players, including Aurele Amenda, Haji Wright, Josh Eccles, and Luke Woolfenden. The match also marks a reunion for Lampard, who previously managed Everton.
