Newswire From a news agency Ongoing story
  • Manchester City have agreed to sign Senegal winger Iliman Ndiaye from Everton for a reported £65 million, including bonuses.
  • The 26-year-old is expected to undergo a medical before the transfer window closes after City beat Tottenham to his signing.
  • Ndiaye scored six goals for Everton last season and would become City’s fourth high-profile arrival since the end of the previous campaign.

Manchester City have agreed to pay £65 million for Everton winger Iliman Ndiaye, with £60 million due upfront and a further £5 million available in bonuses.

The 26-year-old Senegal international was also linked with Tottenham, but City won the race for his signature. He is expected to complete a medical before the transfer window closes.

City turned to Ndiaye after their interest in Liverpool forward Cody Gakpo failed to produce a deal. Liverpool declined to release Gakpo late in the transfer window, prompting the club to redirect its attention to Everton’s winger.

Ndiaye joined Everton from Marseille for £15 million two years ago and scored six goals for David Moyes’ team last season. His move to City is expected to follow the club’s £34.2 million signing of Brazilian winger Allan Elias from Palmeiras.

If completed, Ndiaye will be City’s fourth high-profile signing since the end of last season, following Elliot Anderson, Ayyoub Bouaddi and Allan.
