Senegalese forward Iliman Ndiaye has attracted strong transfer interest ahead of the summer transfer window with several top clubs monitoring his situation.
Ndiaye has been one of the most sought-after names ahead of the window, especially from top Premier League clubs, and could now be on his way out of the Hill Dickinson Stadium ahead of the upcoming campaign.
The 26-year-old joined the Toffees from Olympique Marseille in the summer of 2024 and has become an integral part of the side under David Moyes, going to to make 71 appearances across all competitions, scoring 17 times.
His versatility also makes him a great asset to any team, given his ability to play across both flanks, as well as in the attacking midfield position. He is valued at around €55 million, although Everton could demand above that value if they are to sanction a sale this summer.
Ndiaye has already expressed a desire to leave the club, and here are four clubs the Senegal winger could join ahead of next season.
Liverpool (England)
Premier League heavyweights Liverpool have emerged as frontrunners to sign Iliman Ndiaye this summer as they seek a major rebuild under new head coach Andoni Iraola. The Reds endured a difficult campaign last season, while Egyptian superstar Mohamed Salah has also departed the club.
The need to replace Salah has pushed them into the market and Ndiaye is one of the names that has popped up to replace the former Roma star.
His pace and ability to play across multiple positions also makes him a great fit for Iraola’s high intensity system, and he could soon become the club’s next major signing if Everton’s valuation is met.

Manchester United (England)
Manchester United have been long-term admirers of Ndiaye and have also explored the possibility of a move for the Senegal forward this summer.
Just like Liverpool, the Red Devils are also looking to strengthen their squad as they look to return to the force they used to be in England and also in Europe.
They need reinforcements on the left wing, and the club’s board preference to sign Premier League proven players has put Ndiaye high on their shortlist as well.

Tottenham Hotspur (England)
Former Europa League champions Tottenham Hotspur are another viable destination for Iliman Ndiaye this summer if they manage to secure a deal with Everton for his signature.
Spurs have finished in 17th place for the last two Premier League seasons and are planning to overhaul their squad ahead of next season.
Their primary target for the right wing position is Manchester City winger Savinho. However, Ndiaye has emerged as their top alternative option, and they are expected to intensify their pursuit if they fail to sign Savinho.

Arsenal (England)
Senegalese winger Iliman Ndiaye could also end up at Premier League champions Arsenal this summer, with the Gunners also interested in adding him to their team ahead of next season.
Mikel Arteta’s side are expected to strengthen this summer and their attack is one area of priority after their forwards were largely disappointing last season.
Ndiaye is one of the names they are considering and they could step up their interest to win the race ahead of their other league rivals.
