Manchester City have confirmed the \u00a365m signing of winger Iliman Ndiaye.<\/p>\n

The deal comprises a \u00a360m guaranteed payment plus \u00a35m in bonuses.<\/p>\n

Ndiaye, who had also been wanted by Tottenham, has signed a five-year contract at Manchester City.<\/p>\n

Jack Grealish<\/strong> has gone the other way in a separate deal, returning to Everton on a season-long loan that covers the final year of his Man City contract.<\/p>\n

But Manchester United<\/strong> have rejected Everton’s offer to take Joshua Zirkzee<\/strong> on loan.<\/p>\n

Sky Sports News <\/em>understands Everton offered to pay a total fee of around \u00a310m for Zirkzee, which included his wages for the season and a loan fee.<\/p>\n

Ndiaye’s City arrival comes after Liverpool rejected Manchester City’s \u00a380m bid for Cody Gakpo.<\/p>\n

Sky Sports News<\/em> understands Liverpool were concerned about their chances of bringing in a replacement for the Dutchman.<\/p>\n

Manchester City wanted to sign a wide forward and a central midfielder before the window closes, with the club agreeing a joint-British record deal for Chelsea’s Enzo Fernandez<\/a> on Deadline Day.<\/p>\n

City allowed Savio <\/strong>and Omar Marmoush<\/strong> to join Tottenham earlier this month, reducing Enzo Maresca’s options on the wing.<\/p>\n

City did not name a winger on their bench in Friday’s win over Crystal Palace<\/a> and started with Phil Foden – who Enzo Maresca admitted is not a winger – out wide at Selhurst Park.<\/p>\n

Ndiaye: Man City perfect fit for me<\/h3>\n

Ndiaye, who becomes Manchester City’s seventh summer signing, said: “I’ve worked my whole life for an opportunity like
this.<\/p>\n

“City are one of the best clubs in the world and I’ve seen them win everything as I’ve grown up.<\/p>\n

“To be able to write my own chapter in a story that special is the chance of a lifetime and I’m determined to grab it with both hands.<\/p>\n

“It’s not always been easy in my career, but I always had the belief that I could play for a team challenging for the biggest prizes, and now I’m here. It feels so good.<\/p>\n

“I love to play with the ball on the floor in an attacking team that wants to score as many goals as possible. That’s why I know this is the perfect fit.”<\/p>\n

Manchester City director of football Hugo Viana added: “Iliman is a very talented footballer. He’s had to work incredibly hard to reach this level and in my first conversation with him it was immediately obvious how grounded he is and the determination he has to be the best player he can be.<\/p>\n

“I’ve no doubt City fans will get a thrill seeing him in action for us.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
