The usually reliable social media source for transfer window activity, Fabrizio Romano, says that Everton have rejected enquiries for the services of Iliman Ndiaye from clubs in both the Premier League and Serie A.
Given the struggle Everton have experienced finding new players to strengthen a threadbare squad this summer, the possibility of one of the better players in the squad being tempted to depart for an opportunity at a different club is difficult to contemplate.
Hopefully this is just part and parcel of the normal transfer business where talented players are under constant ‘monitoring’ by the recruitment teams at other clubs. As long as Ndiaye is happy to continue working under David Moyes with his current contract running through 2029, Everton should be in a strong position t repel such advances.
