Liverpool Among Clubs in Talks for Iliman Ndiaye Transfer

It seems the market for wingers is proving tricky this summer, but there’s fresh movement regarding a player valued at around £75 million. Iliman Ndiaye, currently with Everton, has attracted interest from Liverpool, Manchester United, and Arsenal. The Senegal international has made it clear he wants to stay in the Premier League and has turned down initial discussions with Saudi giants Al Hilal.

Though Ndiaye isn’t pushing hard for a transfer right now, Everton are aware that he and his representatives have spoken with other clubs. Arsenal have looked at the 26-year-old as a possible alternative to Vinicius Junior but haven’t yet settled on their main target after missing out on Morgan Rogers. Rumors hint they might return for Bradley Barcola, which could influence their next move.

Manchester United also admire Ndiaye and prefer signing players proven in the Premier League. Still, Everton’s £75 million asking price might be a hurdle. Interestingly, sources confirm that Liverpool’s interest is genuine, even though deals between Merseyside rivals are rare. It’s possible Liverpool’s pursuit is partly aimed at pressuring PSG on Barcola or preparing a backup plan if that deal falters.

“Liverpool, Man United, and Arsenal have all held talks with Ndiaye’s camp,” said one insider. “Everton want £75 million, which is steep, but the player is eager to move. He’s ruled out the Saudi league because he wants top-level football. I doubt Everton would sell to Liverpool, and no direct club-to-club talks have happened yet, but the price might climb even higher for them.”

As things stand, the story around Barcola has quieted, allowing Ndiaye’s situation to gain attention. That saga will likely influence how this transfer talk develops further.
