Manchester City have agreed a deal to sign Iliman Ndiaye from Everton – but what sort of salary is he likely to receive at his new club?

City had been widely expected to move for Cody Gakpo, but they ended that pursuit after Liverpool turned down an offer worth £80million.

Tottenham had also been tracking Ndiaye, but City have now stepped in to land the Senegal international and are set to pay around £65million for the 26-year-old.

Ndiaye joined Everton from Marseille in 2024 in a £15million move. Since then, he has scored 17 goals and registered four assists in 73 appearances for the club.

City will hope Ndiaye can increase that level of output at the Etihad, while the player himself will no doubt be expecting a significant rise in pay.

At present, he earns £45,000 per week at Everton, a figure that would place him towards the lower end of Enzo Maresca’s squad.

Here is the full breakdown of every player in City’s squad and how their wages compare with Ndiaye’s.
