Everton winger Iliman Ndiaye is considered one of the most naturally gifted players in the Premier League.
Idrissa Gana Gueye has even suggested that he could be a future Ballon d'Or winner, which shows how highly rated he is within the club.

Ndiaye's performances have not gone unnoticed, with Manchester United , Arsenal and Chelsea all reportedly keeping an eye on him ahead of the summer window.
In that context, a new report has just surfaced, outlining the substantial fee the Toffees are demanding for their star player.

CaughtOffside have reported that Manchester United are one of five Premier League clubs showing interest in Ndiaye ahead of the summer transfer window.
But the Toffees do not seem to be worried, as the 24-year-old is under contract until 2029, which puts them in a strong position to negotiate.

Despite this, reports suggest Everton could be open to offers between £56-65m for the Senegalese forward.
If that is accurate, it is likely to catch the attention of several clubs across the league.
David Moyes not planning to approve Ndiaye's departure
Speaking last month, David Moyes made it clear that he has no intention of selling Ndiaye, though he did admit that every player has a price.
"We've got no intention of letting Ili go," the Scotsman stated.
"None whatsoever. By the way, I'm sure there's a price for every player on the planet if you look around."
"If you're asking me, we've got no intention of selling Ili."

The Toffees are pushing for European football this season, and reaching that goal would strengthen their case to keep hold of Ndiaye.
The Senegalese star himself has already said he wants to stay at Everton: "As I always say, if there are rumours or interest and things like that, it must mean you're doing something right, right?!
"I am really happy to be at this club and be part of a new project with the new stadium, new ownership.
"It feels like a new adventure for all of us.
"I want to achieve things with Everton, I want to win trophies, which the Club hasn't seen for too long, and things like that. It's an aim for us to work towards."
