Sheffield United are set to receive a modest sum from Iliman Ndiaye’s transfer to Everton, as the Senegalese player prepares to leave Marseille, according to The Star.
Ndiaye, who chose not to renew his contract with Sheffield United last year, is on the verge of joining Everton after negotiations with the French club, where he scored four goals last season.
Ndiaye has reportedly completed a medical, and Sheffield United will earn 20 percent of any profit Marseille makes from his transfer.
Everton’s busy transfer window amid a takeover
Everton is experiencing a busy transfer window, with several moves happening alongside ongoing takeover talks.
Recent reports clarify that the club is not pursuing Leicester City’s Wilfred Ndidi, despite earlier rumors suggesting otherwise [The ECHO].
This decision comes as manager Sean Dyche assesses his squad, having already strengthened the midfield with the signing of Tim Iroegbunam.
Meanwhile, Italian club Atalanta has made a £6.7 million bid for Ben Godfrey, indicating possible squad changes due to financial considerations.
Attention is also on the imminent takeover by Dan Friedkin, who is conducting thorough due diligence before finalizing the acquisition from Farhad Moshiri.
Friedkin’s expected investment of over half a billion pounds could significantly boost Everton, potentially reshaping their ambitions for the upcoming Premier League season under new ownership.
