£70m winger now "open" to joining Man United, 2.2 dribbles/game this season
Manchester United are poised to make multiple signings during the summer transfer window.
A holding midfielder will be the prime priority with Casemiro set to depart on a free transfer.
The club may also seek another solution in the final third and may prefer a versatile option.
A reliable Red Devils insider has now revealed that the club are monitoring the situation of Ndiaye.
The 26-year-old would likewise be ‘open’ to joining United, who he sees as a ‘dream club’.
Man Utd could make genuine move for Ndiaye
United primarily focused on adding attackers with Premier League quality last summer.
Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo were signed from Wolverhampton Wanderers and Brentford respectively. They had their sights on landing striker Liam Delap from Ipswich Town, but the Englishman chose to join Chelsea instead.
That proved a blessing in disguise for the Mancunian giants. They ended up recruiting RB Leipzig star Benjamin Sesko, who has been a revelation under interim manager Michael Carrick, with some crucial goals coming off the bench.
United could once again target players with Premier League pedigree this summer. They could make a genuine move for Ndiaye. The Senegal international can operate as a right or left-sided winger, but appears more comfortable in the former of those positions.
Despite his mid-season absence due to Africa Cup of Nations duty, Ndiaye has impressed with nine goal involvements in the league this term. He has created six big chances and been a headache for defenders, averaging 2.2 successful dribbles per appearance.
Ndiaye has also worked hard without the ball. He has won an impressive six duels per match alongside 2.3 tackles. The attacker has caught the eye with his recovery pace as well. He has averaged six recoveries per outing over the course of the campaign.
The winger, valued at £70m as per Teamtalk’s exclusive, is a perfect team player. His forward-mindedness suits the current playing style under Michael Carrick, who should be a frontrunner for the permanent managerial role if United secure Champions League football.
