Man Utd Transfer News Today: Iliman Ndiaye wanted as €115m price tag set

FootballTransfers runs through the latest Manchester United transfer news, rumours and gossip, including updates on Iliman Ndiaye and Carlos Baleba.

Iliman Ndiaye wanted

Manchester United are the current frontrunners in the race to sign Everton forward Iliman Ndiaye, according to TEAMtalk.

The Senegal international has enjoyed a successful season under David Moyes and his situation is being closely monitored by a number of top clubs, including Arsenal and Chelsea.

However, Man Utd are reportedly leading the battle for Ndiaye’s signature, with Everton demanding a fee of at least €80 million to sanction a sale.

Carlos Baleba price tag

Brighton & Hove Albion will not entertain offers of below €115m for Man Utd target Carlos Baleba, who remains on the Red Devils’ radar ahead of this summer.

The midfielder was heavily linked with an Old Trafford switch last year, but the deal collapsed and his form has suffered a notable drop over the past few months.

Despite this, Brighton are set to demand a fee of at least €115m for the Cameroon star, as per TEAMtalk.

Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain have also been touted as potential destinations for Baleba, although he is still a top target for Man Utd too.

Pierre Kalulu scouting mission

Man Utd have begun monitoring the form of Juventus defender Pierre Kalulu ahead of a potential bid this summer.

The Frenchman has played every single minute in Serie A so far this season and Man Utd are set to send scouts to watch him in action against Inter Milan on Saturday, according to Fichajes.

However, Juventus are reportedly already working on a contract extension proposal as they look to tie Kalulu down to fresh terms following his permanent arrival from AC Milan last summer.

Thomas Tuchel signs new England contract

Thomas Tuchel has ended speculation that he could become the next permanent manager by signing a new contract to keep him in his role as England boss until 2028.

His initial deal was due to expire at the end of the 2026 World Cup, but he has penned a two-year extension in order to take charge of the next European Championship.

Tuchel was linked with becoming the next Man Utd head coach, however he is now out of the running for the role after committing his future to England.

‘Benjamin Sesko is like Ryanair’

Benjamin Sesko’s spectacular equalising goal for Manchester United against West Ham has only won comparisons to budget airline Ryanair by Old Trafford legend Roy Keane.

Sesko, 22, popped up in the closing seconds at the London Stadium to secure a 1-1 draw for the Red Devils on Tuesday and while his classy finish caught the eye, Keane was left unmoved by the Slovak’s effort.

“Sesko is like Ryanair,” he complained on the Overlap. “You know when they land, and they play the music: ‘We’ve landed on time’? That’s Sesko and United. It’s what he’s supposed to do.

“Sorry, but is that what he’s supposed to do, if you know what I mean?

“I’m tired of you saying that he’s supposed to do something, and you score a goal and everyone… Manchester United, expectations, you’re like Ryanair.

“If a flight’s on time, everyone’s f***ing laughing and joking, but usually you’re going to be two hours late, and then everyone thinks that’s the norm…”
