Liverpool Among Clubs in Talks to Sign Iliman Ndiaye

Interest in wingers this summer has been tough to navigate, yet one £75 million talent is drawing significant attention. Reports now suggest that Manchester United, Arsenal, and Liverpool are all involved in discussions over a potential transfer.

Everton’s Iliman Ndiaye Attracts Multiple Premier League Clubs

The player at the center of these talks is Iliman Ndiaye, currently with Everton and representing Senegal internationally. Contrary to earlier rumors linking him to Saudi Pro League giants Al Hilal, Ndiaye appears uninterested in moving there after initial discussions. He wants to remain in the Premier League.

While Ndiaye isn’t aggressively pushing for a transfer, Everton is aware that his camp has engaged with other clubs quietly. Arsenal have considered the 26-year-old as an alternative to Vinicius Junior but remain undecided on their priorities following a miss on Morgan Rogers. There is chatter about Arsenal possibly returning for Bradley Barcola, adding another layer to their transfer plans.

Manchester United admire Ndiaye as well and seek proven Premier League talent, though Everton’s £75 million asking price may present a challenge.

Could Liverpool Make a Surprise Move?

Sources confirm that Liverpool’s interest in Ndiaye is genuine, even though transfers between Merseyside rivals are rare. This might hint at concerns over securing Barcola or could be a tactic to pressure PSG regarding their asking price for a player eager to leave.

While motives aren’t clear, it’s confirmed that Liverpool have directly engaged with Ndiaye’s representatives. This opens the possibility of a more serious pursuit as talks continue.

“Liverpool, Man United, and Arsenal have all held talks with Ndiaye’s camp,” one insider revealed. “Everton want £75m, which is steep, but the player is very determined to move. He’s ruled out Saudi Arabia because he wants to compete at the highest level. I doubt Everton would sell to Liverpool easily, and there have been no direct club-to-club talks yet, but the asking price for Liverpool could end up even higher.”

At the moment, the story around Barcola has quieted down somewhat, which might explain why Ndiaye’s transfer saga is gaining more attention. The outcome of Barcola’s situation will likely influence how this one progresses.
