Jack Grealish Not in Everton Squad for Newcastle Trip After Missing Training
Jack Grealish has not travelled with the Everton squad for their Premier League match at Newcastle United tonight, Sky Sports News understands. The winger also missed last Thursday's Carabao Cup tie against Newcastle after failing to attend a training session, which Sky Sports News reported at the time as a breach of club discipline.
- Match: Newcastle United vs Everton, Premier League, tonight
- Key absence: Jack Grealish (Everton) — not in squad
- Reason: Missed training; breached club discipline
- Previous game: Also missed Thursday's Carabao Cup win over Newcastle
- Manager: David Moyes addressed the absence after Thursday's 3-0 victory
What was said
"See below what David Moyes had to say about Grealish's absence after Thursday's victory"
While the exact wording of Moyes' comments is not included in the source excerpt, the fact that the Everton manager addressed the issue publicly after Thursday's win indicates the club is treating it as a serious internal matter. Moyes is expected to face further questions about Grealish's availability and discipline before kick-off at St James' Park.
Injury and availability
Jack Grealish is unavailable for selection against Newcastle. He did not travel with the squad and will play no part in the match. The reason is disciplinary, not injury-related, according to the source.
Why Everton are without Grealish at Newcastle
Jack Grealish was already absent for Thursday's Carabao Cup tie at Newcastle after missing a training session in the build-up. Sky Sports News reported that the omission was a breach of club discipline. The 29-year-old was not selected for that match, which Everton won 3-0, and he remains out of contention tonight.
David Moyes now faces a selection decision on the flanks without Grealish. Everton's attacking shape will likely rely on other wide options, though the source does not name them. The manager's public comments after Thursday's win suggest he is managing the situation internally rather than airing details publicly.
Grealish's absence leaves Everton without a player who would ordinarily be a key creative outlet. His discipline issue is now a talking point among supporters, who will want to know whether he returns for the next fixture. The source does not indicate how long he will be unavailable.
Talking points
- Is a one-match internal suspension enough, or should Moyes make an example of Grealish by extending his absence?
- Everton won 3-0 without him on Thursday — does that make it easier for Moyes to leave him out again?
- Should the club publicly clarify the nature of the discipline breach, or is keeping it internal the right call?
- How much does Grealish's absence weaken Everton's attacking threat at St James' Park tonight?
What happens next
Everton face Newcastle tonight in the Premier League without Grealish. Moyes will confirm his starting XI before kick-off, and the manager's post-match comments will be scrutinised for any update on Grealish's return to the squad. Everton's next fixture after tonight will determine whether the winger comes back into contention.
