Manchester United are interested in signing the Everton attacker Iliman Ndiaye. They view the 25-year-old as a summer target, and it will be interesting to see if they decide to make a move for him in the coming months. The 25-year-old Senegal international has done quite well in the Premier League, and he has multiple admirers at United. He helped his country win the AFCON recently.
Playing in the Premier League has always been a dream of mine, and I'm incredibly excited for what's ahead. I know there's still plenty of work to do, and pushing myself every day and improving is something I'm fully committed to. We have some special things ahead of us at Sunderland, and I'm looking forward to taking this journey together.
