His ability to overcome pressure, carry the ball and create chances made him one of Everton&#8217;s most important attacking lynchpins last season.<\/p>\n<p>The report suggests that this uncertainty stems from ongoing discussions over a new contract.<\/p>\n<p>Everton would ideally want to secure Ndiaye&#8217;s long-term future, but TT said the player himself was ready to consider other options after an excellent season and progress would not be easy.<\/p>\n<p>It naturally attracted attention from other places as well.<\/p>\n<p>The fact that European clubs are also involved only increases the level of competition that Everton could face if the situation develops further.<\/p>\n<p>From Moyes&#8217; point of view, retaining the forward will almost certainly be a priority.<\/p>\n<p>The Everton manager is looking to build continuity after a strong season, but losing one of the team&#8217;s standout players will pose a major challenge heading into the new season.<\/p>\n<p>The club&#8217;s transfer plans appear to be aimed at strengthening the core of the current group, rather than replacing key players. That&#8217;s why the next few weeks could be important.<\/p>\n<p>If Everton can reach an agreement with Ndiaye, it would remove a huge amount of uncertainty and allow Moyes to focus fully on recruitment. Otherwise, the club may be left dealing with increased interest from stronger teams in England and abroad.<\/p>\n<p>That said, Bailey also claims Moyes is relaxed about the situation and feels he has full control as Ndiaye is currently under contract until 2029.<\/p>\n<div class=\"display-card  article article-card small  no-badge  active-content                              \" data-include-community-rating=\"false\" id=\"everton-man-city-john-stones-nathan-ake\" data-nosnippet=\"\">\n<p>                        <img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"440\" height=\"248\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Stones - Everton - Premier League\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static0.footballfancastimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/stones-everton-premier-league.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=220&amp;h=124&amp;dpr=2\" src=\"https:\/\/static0.footballfancastimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/stones-everton-premier-league.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=220&amp;h=124&amp;dpr=2\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                    <span data-field=\"label\" class=\"article-card-label\"><label>related<\/label><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"w-display-card-content regular article-block\">\n<h5 class=\"display-card-title \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Everton_considering_signing_%E2%80%98underrated_Man_City_player_alongside_John_Stones\"><\/span>\n<p>\t\t\tEverton considering signing &#8216;underrated&#8217; Man City player alongside John Stones<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p class=\"display-card-excerpt\">Manager David Moyes wants to strengthen his backline.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Everton are having an important summer as manager David Moyes prepares for his second full season in charge and looks to build on the club&#8217;s progress in its first year at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
