Tottenham Target Everton’s Iliman Ndiaye as Toffees Hold Firm
Everton’s stance, reinforced by a 2029 contract, makes a January transfer unlikely.
Overview
- Spurs pivoted to Ndiaye after Morgan Rogers signed a new Aston Villa deal to 2031, with the Everton winger added to Tottenham’s shortlist and no formal bid reported.
- Everton have indicated they will not sell mid-season and have dismissed talk of a £30m valuation as unrealistic.
- The club’s manager has publicly stated there is no intention to let Ndiaye leave, underscoring the plan to build around him.
- Newcastle United, Juventus, AC Milan and Atlético Madrid are monitoring the 25-year-old, increasing expected competition and price.
- Ndiaye’s strong early-season form and versatility across the frontline have boosted his appeal, with reporting pointing to the summer as the more plausible window for any move.
