What happened
Manchester City have agreed a £65m deal to sign Everton attacker Iliman Ndiaye. The transfer would see the Senegalese forward move from Goodison Park to the Etihad Stadium, providing Pep Guardiola with another attacking option. Everton, meanwhile, would bank a significant fee for a player who has impressed since joining the club. The deal is reportedly agreed between the clubs, with personal terms and a medical still to follow.
Chance analysis
Iliman Ndiaye's potential move to Manchester City would give Pep Guardiola another versatile attacking piece for an already deep squad, signaling City's intent to keep refreshing their forward line. For Everton, losing a player of Ndiaye's output represents both a sporting and financial blow — the £65m fee softens the blow but replacing his creativity and goals will be a priority before the window closes. The deal underlines the growing financial gulf between the Premier League's top clubs and mid-table sides reliant on player trading.
Manchester City gain attacking depth with a versatile forward, while Everton lose a key contributor and must reinvest the £65m fee before the window closes.
