The Athletic | Football(@TheAthleticFC):Everton are aware of interest in forward Iliman Ndiaye from Al Hilal, but there remains significant work to do to complete a deal. The Saudi Arabian side have received enough encouragement from Ndiaye’s camp to consider a bid but talks are yet to begin between the clubs, with Everton expected to place a lofty valuation, similar to the £70million Barcelona paid Newcastle United this summer for Anthony Gordon, on a player who has three years remaining on his contract. 📝 @Paddy
