The English transfer window could still get carried away in its final days with several major movements. This morning, The Athletic revealed an interest from Manchester City in Iliman Ndiaye. The Skyblues are not against the idea of selling Jack Grealish, but on condition of finding a replacement. To the extent that the England international would like to return to Everton, the idea of seeing Iliman Ndiaye take the opposite path appears to be the logical next step.
It is not the Senegalese international who will oppose this possibility. According to our information, Iliman Ndiaye indeed wants to join Manchester City, and he has made the English club his priority in the event of his departure by the end of the transfer window. At the same time, discussions are progressing positively between the two clubs, who still have a few days to reach an agreement on the transfer of the former Marseillais.
Manchester City could still make two big transfers this summer
After a missed meeting with his favorite club OM in 2023, Iliman Ndiaye was able to bounce back with Everton. Having become an indisputable starter for the Toffees since his signing, the 26-year-old winger has also established himself as one of the best players in the English championship in his position. During his first Premier League season, Ndiaye scored 9 goals.
He scored 6 last season, and provided 3 assists. Under contract until 2029 with the Toffees, the former Sheffield United player is valued at 55 million euros per Transfermarkt. He could be one of the last big transfers of the summer for Manchester City, who also want to recruit Enzo Fernandez.
