Also there's a difference between speculating about a possibility and wasting time on a blatant falsehood.

Re: Iliman Ndiaye (Saudi Interest)
Should have given him a new contract last summer.
I have no doubt he was a bit fuming at the money we lashed out on Grealish whilst he was one of our lowest earners.
Who are these jokers running the club.

Re: Iliman Ndiaye (Saudi Interest)
He’s turned down multiple contract offers, as per Boyland etc. Was happy to sign one but wanted a release clause of £50m, apparently.

Which effectively means that he wants to leave.Granite wrote: Tue Jul 28, 2026 10:23 am He’s turned down multiple contract offers, as per Boyland etc. Was happy to sign one but wanted a release clause of £50m, apparently.
The kid is on 45K a week at Everton - that is almost half of what Keane is earning. As someone else said here - he should have got that new contract last year. Something is wrong when our best player is one of the lowest paid players. There is no downside for him to get a higher salary but still a clause that makes it possible for him to leave whenever he wants to.

Re: Iliman Ndiaye (Saudi Interest)
Maybe he's thinking more strategically. Goes Saudi, earns a fortune, kills it with his abilities for a season, then gets bought by a big club and gets his move to CL

Apparently the contract offers were rejected mid season.TrevorSteven wrote: Tue Jul 28, 2026 10:27 am Which effectively means that he wants to leave.

It was deffo a story but the window was closed and he had years on his contract so it wasn’t much of a talking point.

Re: Iliman Ndiaye (Saudi Interest)
As a club and as a fanbase we should stop thinking having years left on a contract means anything.
Four contracts rejected, and forcing a move to Saudi.
We’ll get decent money but £70m to spend whilst needing to replace your best player barely touches the sides.

Re: Iliman Ndiaye (Saudi Interest)
Take the Saudi money and improve the squad. Really can’t be arsed with a month of posturing, only to see him go at the end of the window.
