Liverpool have been linked with a shock move for Everton star Iliman Ndiaye, as have Manchester United, but new information has emerged about his price tag. Journalist Mark Brus provided a key update earlier this week, discussing Liverpool and United’s interest in the forward, and claiming he is valued at £75m: “Liverpool, Manchester United and Arsenal have all held talks with Ndiaye’s camp.
He’s decided against the Saudi option [Al Hilal] as he wants to keep playing at the highest level. Liverpool’s rivals are “confident” that the Nigerian won’t push for an exit before the end of the month, but they do mention that he “has turned down a number of proposals so far this year.” Could Liverpool really sign Iliman Ndiaye from Everton?
The idea of Liverpool signing Everton is mouthwatering, not just for the petty bragging rights, but mainly because he is a superb footballer, being lauded by Vitalii Mykolenko: “If you play the ball to him, he can make everything, he can create, he can do anything with the ball. I think he’s the most skilful player in the Premier League at the moment.” In reality, though, it is almost impossible to see Everton sanctioning a move for Ndiaye to Anfield, even if Liverpool bid £100m or more for his services.
