Manchester United may have just handed Everton some hope of keeping Iliman Ndiaye this summer.
There is growing speculation over the future of Ndiaye on Merseyside following developments with his contract negotiations.
Everton have offered Ndiaye a new contract, which would improve his salary, but it has been rejected by his camp.
How likely do you think it is that Everton could lose Iliman Ndiaye this summer? 😬
Surely a player of his quality will want to showcase himself on the top stage 🤩
With Man United showing an interest in Ndiaye, fresh suggestions that they now want to sign Crysencio Summerville may just ease some of the concerns at Finch Farm.
Man United offer Everton hope over keeping Iliman Ndiaye this summer
Ironically, Everton also have an interest in Summerville this summer, but they may have to yield to a club like Man United.
In the grand scheme of things, that may not be the worst case scenario, with a possible move to Old Trafford for the Dutchman potentially lessening the chances of Ndiaye making that move.
It has been suggested that West Ham United are valuing Summerville at £50m, which may well take the winger out of Everton’s price range anyway.
How much would it take for Everton to accept a bid for Iliman Ndiaye? 💷
David Moyes said every player has his price… 😫
Although United will not be following a strict summer budget like Everton, many would expect that the possible addition of a player like Summerville would rule them out of the running for Ndiaye.
This will be a positive for the Blues, but it must be considered that it is not just the Red Devils who have been linked with the Senegal international.
Manchester City also have Ndiaye on their radar, according to some reports, after being impressed with his performances for Everton.
Despite the 26-year-old not seeing out the season to his usual high standards, Ndiaye is still a player high on the agenda for some of the top clubs in the league.
Frustratingly, Ndiaye has failed to quash transfer speculation after being asked about his future during his time away at the World Cup.
A long summer could await Everton, but United’s interest in Summerville should be seen as a positive by those on Merseyside.
