Manchester City has reached an agreement with Everton to sign forward Iliman Ndiaye for a reported £65 million (approximately €75 million). The deal, announced by Fabrizio Romano, includes agreed-upon personal terms and a green light for a medical examination. This transfer concludes a competitive pursuit, with Tottenham also having previously agreed to a £60 million fee for the player. Everton initially valued Ndiaye at £80 million, but City’s offer and Ndiaye’s preference ultimately swayed the deal. The Senegalese international, who scored six goals and provided three assists in the 2025-2026 Premier League season, reportedly favored City's project over Tottenham's. Ndiaye joined Everton from Olympique de Marseille in 2024 and quickly became a key offensive player for the club.
