Iliman Ndiaye (City back on the menu)

[Cozzie]

Things could go quite bonkers near the end of the window.

[brap2]

Honestly smells to me like Ndiaye for 80 and jack to us for a song.

[Cods]

If it's City, looking at some of the fees they've paid and received, they'd need to be talking somewhere between £80-100m for me.

Don't care if he's worth that or not. If you want him badly, pay the money.

Add about 30 to the upper and lower limits and I'd be more happy.

We've got to at the very least replace, and significantly improve other areas if we are to lose him.

He's worth considerably more to us than he is to them. Our quality is limited, they've bucketloads, the transfer fee has to be proportional.

[StirlingBlue]

Arsenal, City and Liverpool are all shopping in the same market for wingers and there aren't that many out there that fit the bill - could work in our favour on any Ndiaye price - I also think it would be a good look for any targets we're trying to sign if we can show a path of shining at Everton then getting a move to a CL club.

Gordon went for £80m this summer so we should be looking around that level I think

[Paddockoldie]

We won't get 80 for him, unless he ups his goals. Amazing skills, but for those numbers he needs end product. He looked keen to score last night, and should have. He might go January if he gets goals between now and then. Gutted to lose him

Savinho went for £75m and never scores either...has bags of pace admittedly which Ndaiye lacks a bit, but I think that kind of fee or slightly higher is his value in this current mad summer market.

Savinho fee was artificially high and Marmoush artificially low so City didn't have to pay a % of the profit to Marmoush's former club

[Raptor]

It's Savio!!

But as Brap says, I think this has Grealish+ money written all over it, and to be honest, I'd be happy with that.
I don't want Grealish and Ndiaye as I like Dibling/George, but I'm more than happy with either of those, plus the extra cash would help us reinvest

In a Ndiaye for Grealish plus money I would still want a substantial fee for Ndiaye. £60M easy.

[Cozzie]

Still has 3 years left on his contract.

Dig in, demand no less than 80M.

Still 80. Grealish is going on a free/loan unless they find a sucker

[CorkyOnTour]

Ndiaye is going nowhere imo

[Bumble]

If you're City and you can swap Savinho for Ndiaye for the same money you're doing that all day long.

[StirlingBlue]

I don't really get why City are interested in Ndiaye - Maresca uses his wingers very high and wants them to stay wide whereas Ndiaye is at his best drifting inside.

He's definitely fit the system at Arsenal better

[blueToffee]

Would be sad to lose him.

I wouldn’t take less than 80 plus Grealish or 90 without in this market though.

CBA dropping below 80 when a relegated West Ham can charge such high fees or with Brighton rejecting 70 for Minteh.

Especially when we’re into the last week of the window and all the prices we’ll be paying will also be extra inflated.
