Al-Hilal is on the verge of securing Iliman Ndiaye from Everton for a reported €75 million, according to journalist David Ornstein. The 26-year-old Senegalese international is expected to travel to Riyadh for a medical examination and finalize a four-year contract. This deal represents a significant profit for Everton, who acquired Ndiaye from Olympique de Marseille in 2024 for approximately €20 million. Ndiaye has been a consistent performer for Everton, featuring in 71 games with 17 goals and 3 assists. Despite having a contract until 2029, stalled extension talks opened the door for other clubs, including Manchester United, to make a move. This transfer aligns with Al-Hilal’s ambitious summer recruitment strategy, having already signed Crysencio Summerville, and aims to bolster their squad for both the Saudi League and the Asian Champions League.
