Iliman Ndiaye discusses his future at Everton

Iliman Ndiayes breakthrough season at Everton has placed him among the most coveted attacking talents in the Premier League, with Manchester United emerging as the frontrunners in a growing queue of elite suitors monitoring the Senegal internationals situation.

The 25-year-old, who returned from the Africa Cup of Nations with a winners medal earlier this year, has been instrumental for the Toffees, his performances drawing admiring glances from across the division. Despite mounting speculation linking him with a move away from Goodison Park, Ndiaye insists his immediate focus remains firmly on delivering for his current employers.

Speaking exclusively to The Times, the forward addressed the transfer talk surrounding his future: If clubs are interested in me, it means Im doing my job well. But as long as Im playing for Everton, Ill give everything for the club and I want to achieve great things, especially reaching Europe this season.

Those comments underline a determination to help Everton secure continental qualification, a target that would cap a remarkable campaign for both player and club. With several months of the season remaining, Ndiayes commitment could prove pivotal as Everton chase a coveted European berth.

Manchester Uniteds interest, while prominent, is unlikely to distract a player whose priority is to maximise his impact in royal blue before entertaining any thoughts of a potential transfer. For now, Everton supporters can expect the dazzling dribbles and decisive contributions that have become Ndiayes trademark to continue at Goodison Park.
