Jack Grealish apologises after being left out by Everton
Grealish says sorry on Instagram to fans and club, and is back training with the squad after three matches on the bench.
Jack Grealish has apologised for the behaviour that led to him being left out of three consecutive matches for Everton in the Premier League, including the 1-0 win over Newcastle and the 3-1 win over Coventry City at Hill Dickinson. David Moyes backed the decision to leave him out.
In an Instagram story, Grealish admitted he had not been able to help the team in recent weeks and apologised to the fans and everyone at the club. He said he loves playing for Everton and cannot wait to be back on the pitch in the blue shirt.
The club had explained his absence with a blunt message: Grealish was not match fit and so was not part of the squad. He has now returned to training with the group and played in a behind-closed-doors friendly, which, according to the Mirror, suggests Everton are willing to move on from the episode.
