Report: 25-year-old Premier League winger has ‘several’ admirers at Man United

Manchester United scouts are closely monitoring the situation of Iliman Ndiaye, with the Everton winger emerging as a player of growing interest inside Old Trafford, according to TEAMtalk.

The 25-year-old has reportedly built up “several” admirers within United’s hierarchy as the club continues to prioritise signings with Premier League experience amid a wider squad rebuild.

Ndiaye has been one of Everton’s best attacking performers this season, combining flair, intensity, and versatility across the frontline.

Capable of operating on either wing or in a central attacking role, the Senegal international has impressed with his direct running, close control, and work rate, qualities that match with what Man United believe they need to restore balance and dynamism in attack.

The Senegal star has scored four goals for Everton in all competitions this season but mainly, his creativity and his pace in the wide position is crucial to Everton’s attack.

United’s interest has been further fuelled by Ndiaye’s eye-catching performances at the Africa Cup of Nations with Senegal.

Multiple clubs across Europe have taken notice of his displays on the international stage, where he has showcased composure under pressure and an ability to influence big matches.

AFCON has often served as a platform for players to elevate their profiles, and Ndiaye appears to be doing exactly that.

At Old Trafford, recruitment chiefs are keen to avoid the adaptation risks associated with overseas signings who lack Premier League exposure.

Recent additions such as Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo have reinforced the club’s belief that players already accustomed to the physical and tactical demands of English football can make a quicker impact.

Ndiaye fits that mould perfectly, having proven himself with Everton despite the club’s inconsistent form.

However, any concrete move for the winger could depend heavily on Man United’s managerial appointment.

With uncertainty surrounding the long-term direction of the team, the final decision on targets like Ndiaye may rest with whoever is entrusted with leading the first team.

Man United still hold interest in South American star from Premier League rivals
