Manchester City winger Jack Grealish, who is on loan at Everton, has spoken about Toffees midfielder Iliman Ndiaye. His words are quoted by Goal.

“Ndiaye is the most technical player in the Premier League. From the point of view of pure skill, yes. I’m not saying it’s the best, but it’s technical. Saka, for example, is very strong, one of the best wingers in the world. But he is not technical.

For example, you wouldn’t put Doc on a small mini-football field. But Ndiaye does not need such a space at all. Yes, yes, it doesn’t matter where he is. He just moves, whereas Doc, you know, might need some space for his speed and everything. Like Saka,” Grealish said.

Iliman Ndiaye has made 18 appearances for Everton this season, scoring four goals and providing two assists.
