Re: Iliman Ndiaye
Was made up when we bought him.
Was the biggest sure thing we’ve signed for years and at £15m we’ve got an incredible deal.
When he played in the championship he was so obviously on another ten levels to who he was playing against.
Need to get a contract sorted ASAP otherwise clubs will come calling in January. Make him a highest earner.

Re: Iliman Ndiaye
Not sure if it was '2am eyes', but a couple of times, when working his arse off pressing players, he actually showed their players to the space they wanted, and the pressure came off. It was like he had done all the hard work and then let them escape.
Apart from that I thought he was absolutely exceptional all game defensively and going forward. Felt like everything (except those two instances) clicked for him. Wonderfully fun to watch.

Cannot believe he was at boreham wood a few years ago.
Looks so, so good at this level now, it's like it's really clicked with him now.

Inter made a £40m enquiry for Everton forward Iliman Ndiaye, which was rejected.

Re: Iliman Ndiaye
Were they after Lookman at one point and it fell through? I did wonder if Ndiaye might have been subject to some interest toward the end of the window as it's seemed a few of the winger transfers weren't getting over the line.
It's probably a problem we're going to have to have if he keeps playing as he has been. If he has a really strong season, probably going to have some top clubs sniffing around. We should probably look to give him a contract extension and wage bump soon.

Re: Iliman Ndiaye
He's worth more than 40m. 40m really doesn't get you that much these days. Us and forest paid similar amounts for dibbling and Hutchinson who've done practically nothing in top flight football
Re: Iliman Ndiaye
You would hope that if he has a really strong season, along with the quality that we have signed in the Summer, we would be in or around European places and could convince him to stay and continue the project.blueToffee wrote: ↑Tue Sep 02, 2025 3:56 pm Were they after Lookman at one point and it fell through?

Re: Iliman Ndiaye
Joke isn’t it..
The kids an absolute baller.
I worried when you signed him that he would be bullied off the ball, I watched footage of him at Sheffield United and I was still worried.
He’s proved me wrong.. his desire, wikk and strength in and out of possession is unreal. He creates something every time he has the ball and will love playing with Jack Dewsbury Hall.
He’s worth 150 mill to Everton.. you simply don’t find these players very much : )
