Manchester City is exploring a move for Everton winger Iliman Ndiaye, who has declined several contract offers from the club. The 26-year-old has been pursued by Al-Hilal in the Saudi Pro League, but reportedly turned down their approach. Everton, managed by David Moyes, has no immediate need to sell as Ndiaye's contract does not expire until 2029, and they are expected to demand around £70 million for his transfer. Meanwhile, Jack Grealish has expressed a desire to return to Everton, where he played last season before his injury. Although City manager Enzo Maresca is open to Grealish’s departure before the transfer deadline, there are currently no formal offers from any clubs.

"Manchester City hold an interest in signing Everton winger Iliman Ndiaye, who has rejected multiple contract offers on Merseyside. Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal held a strong interest in signing the Senegal international this summer, but the 26-year-old reportedly turned down the move. David Moyes' side are under no pressure to sell Ndiaye, whose contract runs until 2029, and are likely to demand a significant fee in the region of £70m to even consider a sale.
