Dan Friedkin set to intervene as Iliman Ndiaye's Everton transfer stance shared - journalist

Dan Friedkin has made his stance on selling Iliman Ndiaye to Manchester United very clear at Everton ahead of the summer.

After years of selling their best players to meet the financial demands of the Premier League regulations, Everton have finally turned a corner.

Ndiaye is receiving interest from Man United on the back of another impressive season on Merseyside.

Under The Friedkin Group, the Toffees boast financial stability, which is allowing them to pick and choose their transfers rather than being forced into sales due to financial worries.

How much would it take for Everton to accept a bid for Iliman Ndiaye? 💷

David Moyes said every player has his price… 😫

Dan Friedkin to personally reject Man United’s interest for Iliman Ndiaye

Friedkin is closing in on a new sponsorship deal at Everton, with the revenue generated set to allow Moyes greater spending power in the summer.

As the Blues look to add improvements over the coming months, Friedkin wants to make sure that Ndiaye will not depart for Old Trafford.

“I mean for me, Iliman Ndiaye isn’t your typical like left winger. He can play anywhere and he loves going central,” said journalist Ben Jacobs on The United Stand.

“So that’s why I’m led to believe that they’re (United) not really pushing on that. And as we’ve said before, Everton’s perspective is the same as Jarrad Branthwaite. Man United bid multiple times for Jarrad Branthwaite and Dan Friedkin and his team said, “No, we’re not selling.”

“Everton do not see themselves as a selling club. So, I think Ndiaye may look for a move, but I’m under the impression from Everton sources that he’s going to be really difficult to get out of that football club this summer and they might even offer him improved terms.”

Ndiaye has shared his desire to win silverware at Everton, with the club finally looking like they are ready to push on under the new ownership.

Supporters may be frustrated by the inconsistent results of late, but Friedkin’s attitude towards keeping Ndiaye at the club goes to show the change in mentality on Merseyside.

Everton must hand Ndiaye a new contract

The ultimate indication of intent from the Friedkins would be to prevent any summer deal with a new and improved contract.

Everton News previously reported that Everton could look to hand Ndiaye a new deal before the end of the year.

The Senegal international has been in fine form for Everton ever since he touched down on Merseyside.

It is only natural for other clubs to be interested in his services given the level of his performances in an Everton shirt.

Having netted 16 goals since joining the club, Ndiaye has proven to be Everton’s main goal threat, which would prove extremely hard to replace.
