The 25-year-old has reportedly built up “several” admirers within United’s hierarchy as the club continues to prioritize signings with Premier League experience amid a wider squad rebuild.
Ndiaye has been one of Everton’s best attacking players this season, combining flair, intensity and versatility on the front line.
The Senegalese international, who can operate on the wing or in a central attacking role, has impressed with his direct running, precise control and work rate; qualities that match what Man United think they need to restore balance and dynamism in attack.

The Senegal star has scored four goals for Everton in all competitions this season, but especially his creativity and his speed in the wide position are crucial for Everton’s attack.
United’s interest has been further fueled by Ndiaye’s standout performances at the Africa Cup of Nations with Senegal.
Several clubs across Europe have taken note of his performances on the international stage, where he has shown calmness under pressure and the ability to influence big games.
AFCON has often served as a platform for players to take their profiles to the next level, and Ndiaye looks to be doing just that.
At Old Trafford, recruitment chiefs are keen to avoid the adjustment risks associated with foreign signings without Premier League prominence.

Recent signings such as Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo have reinforced the club’s belief that players already accustomed to the physical and tactical demands of English football can make an impact more quickly.
Ndiaye fits that bill perfectly and has proven himself at Everton despite the club’s inconsistent form.
However, any concrete move for the winger could depend heavily on Manchester United’s appointment as manager.
With uncertainty surrounding the team’s long-term direction, the final decision on targets like Ndiaye could rest with whoever takes charge of the first team.
