Jack Grealish agrees to join Everton on season's loan from Manchester City
Jack Grealish is poised to sign for Everton on loan after agreeing to leave Manchester City in an attempt to revive his stalled career. Everton's interest in the City midfielder was reciprocated over the weekend with Grealish accepting the opportunity to join David Moyes's side in their first season at Hill Dickinson Stadium. The 29-year-old is due to undergo a medical on Monday and confirmation of his loan deal could be announced swiftly, providing there are no issues. City are looking to recoup most of Grealish's £300,000-a-week wages and Everton's outlay could be more than £12m after a loan fee. The £100m signing from Aston Villa has been effectively frozen out at City by Pep Guardiola and was not included in his 27-man squad for this summer's Club World Cup.

Palace lose appeal against Europa League demotion in CAS
Aug 11 (Reuters) - Crystal Palace have lost their appeal against UEFA's decision to drop them from the Europa League to the third-tier Conference League in a multi-club ownership case, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) said on Monday. UEFA demoted Palace last month while allowing Olympique Lyonnais to play in the Europa League as, at the time, the Eagle Football Group were majority owners of Lyon while their chairman John Textor owned a controlling stake in Palace. Palace, who qualified for the Europa League as FA Cup winners, appealed against UEFA's decision last month. The appeal came days before New York Jets co-owner Robert Wood "Woody" Johnson completed the purchase of Textor-founded Eagle Football Holdings' stake in Palace. Textor has also resigned from Lyon's board of directors with Michele Kang appointed chairwoman and president. As both Lyon and Palace had qualified for the Europa League, the French club were allowed to keep their place as they had finished higher in their respective leagues. Lyon finished sixth in Ligue 1 while Palace were 12th in the Premier League. Palace, who won the Community Shield on Sunday beating Liverpool in a penalty shootout, are set to play in the Conference League's qualifying playoff round later this month. Nottingham Forest will replace Palace in the Europa League, having finished seventh in the English top-tier.

'Excellent transfer window' but 'no way are they ready' - fans on season to come
We asked for your views on whether Burnley are ready for the new season after the Clarets completed their pre-season campaign with a 1-0 defeat to Lazio at Turf Moor on are some of your comments:Fraser: Absolutely. Quietly gone about our transfer business, strengthening without seriously expensive headline acquisitions and still a couple to come. Parker will prove to be far more pragmatic than Kompany was last time round. Extremely difficult to buck the trend of revolving door back to the Championship but I believe we have a good Burnley had some nice touches and played OK against Lazio, but there is a huge CJ Egan-Riley shaped hole at the back, which I'm not sure the current squad can fill. Only time will tell if lack of goals has been Very astute and excellent transfer window for the Clarets with a good blend of talent, Premier League experience, youth and good business regarding Walker and Trafford especially. Burnley are in a lot better state of preparedness than the last Premier League Ready as they'll ever be. Bit of a forlorn hope, but they'll surely give it a better go than two years No way are they ready. The tactics against Lazio proved it. The goal wouldn't have happened with a back four, and the signings of last week won't have had a game with the team. Lots of new signings didn't work two years ago, and it wont this. Too many - it just doesn't work in the It's all about the start. A good start and the 36 points needed to survive seems possible. A bad start and the mountain looks We've brought in a good mix of talent and Premier League capability/experience. Given the disruption and/or personnel losses at other clubs, I feel confident we can push for the top of the bottom third. 14th position here we come!Shaun: Yet again we've bought a lot of players and are not giving last season's players much of a chance to prove themselves in the Premier League. Hopefully Broja can show how good a striker he is and score the goals that keeps us up!
