‘Magic’ player is currently at Everton and doing his medical – Fabrizio Romano

Everton’s summer appears to be only getting better, with a new signing on the way.

Everton strengthened their roster by bringing back Jack Harrison on loan from Leeds United, following the signing of Tim Iroegbunam, which prompted the Premier League to close the club’s PSR loophole.

Kevin Thelwell aimed to improve Sean Dyche’s team, and it appears that he has succeeded.

Iliman Ndiaye seems set to sign for Everton

Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano provided an update on Everton’s pursuit of Iliman Ndiaye.

Having confirmed that the transfer was almost complete, this latest piece of information takes the narrative to the next level, alleging that the Senegal international is on Merseyside preparing to complete the transaction.

He stated on X: “EXCL: Iliman Ndiaye, currently on Merseyside undergoing medical tests as new Everton player.” OM will receive €18.5 million + €1.5 million in add-ons; Ndiaye inks a five-year contract until June 2029′.

A large money for a club in such financial distress, this might be the move that ignites Amadou Onana’s Everton exit, or another club attempting to persuade Dominic Calvert-Lewin to go.

Iliman Ndiaye will add magic to Sean Dyche’s squad

While the fee may appear to be high, this clever forward is certain to bring something unique to Dyche’s squad that few others have.

He is a match-winner who can dance past defences on his own.

Fans need only listen to his former manager, Paul Heckingbottom, who couldn’t have been more effusive in his praise for the striker.He once said, ‘Iliman has that power in him, and we’ve always known it. But he buys his minutes on the pitch because of the role he plays, and what he contributes for the team as a whole.

‘If you just see the magic, people will become used to it. But I rate him, and I believe he has the potential to become a better player, because of what he does and how he works for the rest of the team.

Abdoulaye Doucoure’s shadow striker job will be filled by someone who is both hardworking and capable.

Last season at Marseille was a struggle, with three goals and five assists, but his final year at Sheffield United saw him contribute 27 goals, earning him a return to his boyhood club.

Everton’s offer of the Premier League and such a prestigious club enticed him to leave, which is significant.
