Manchester City is pursuing Everton’s Senegalese striker Iliman Ndiaye with an £80 million valuation, looking to complete the deal before the August 31 transfer deadline. The 26-year-old, who joined Everton from Marseille for €18M in July 2024, scored 6 goals and provided 3 assists in the 2025-26 Premier League season. Everton holds significant leverage with Ndiaye under contract until June 2029, though the player has rejected multiple extension offers. City midfielder Jack Grealish could be included in the deal to help offset the high transfer fee, with his contract running until summer 2027. No official bid has been submitted and talks remain informal at this stage.
