Senegal international Iliman Ndiaye has swiftly become one of the Premier League’s most prized assets this season, while Everton has reportedly decided to hold onto their star attacker amid significant interest.
The 25-year-old has been linked with a move to Manchester United in the last couple of weeks, with the club said to be keen on adding another winger to their attacking department.
With Ndiaye seemingly fitting the bill, popular football journalist Ben Jacobs reported that Everton don’t consider themselves as a feeder club.
“Everton don’t see themselves as a selling club,” Jacobs said, as per Liverpool World.
“I think Ndiaye may look for a move, but I am actually under the impression from Everton sources that he’s going to be really difficult to get out of that football club this summer.
“They might even offer him improved terms.”
