Manchester United continue to seek squad reinforcement following their qualification for the Champions League. Head coach Michael Carrick is looking to sign a new forward.
According to Football Insider, the club is interested in Iliman Ndiaye. However, a transfer for the Everton forward appears unlikely.
The club hierarchy is willing to sell the Senegalese international only for £75 million. United and Manchester City are not currently prepared to pay such a fee.
At present, Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal is the frontrunner in the race for the player. They have already agreed on personal contract terms with the footballer.
The outcome of the deal now hinges on whether the Saudis will meet the demanded sum. Everton find themselves in a strong negotiating position, as the 26-year-old's contract runs until 2029.
