Senegal international Iliman Ndiaye has reportedly been offered a lucrative contract by Saudi Pro League side Al Hilal as the club steps up its pursuit of the Everton winger during the summer transfer window.

According to Saudi newspaper Asharq Al-Awsat, the 26-year-old has been offered a weekly salary of £270,000 in an effort to persuade him to make the move to Saudi Arabia.

Al Hilal push for attacking reinforcements

Al Hilal are understood to be in discussions with Everton as they seek to strengthen their attacking options ahead of the new season.

The Saudi club have identified Ndiaye as a priority target, but Everton are reportedly holding firm on their valuation of the Senegal international.

The Premier League side are said to be demanding £70 million (€81 million) before considering the winger’s departure.

Everton stand firm on valuation

If completed at Everton’s asking price, Ndiaye’s transfer would exceed the fee Al Hilal reportedly paid to sign Dutch winger Crysencio Summerville from West Ham United, a deal valued at around €80 million.

The reported valuation underlines Everton’s determination to retain one of their key attacking players unless their financial demands are met.

Senegal star attracting Saudi interest

Ndiaye joined Everton from French club Marseille in the summer of 2024 and featured regularly during the 2025-26 campaign.

The Senegal international made 34 appearances in all competitions last season, scoring six goals and providing three assists.

While Al Hilal are reportedly keen to complete the signing, no agreement has yet been announced between the clubs, and negotiations remain ongoing.
