Everton are reportedly gearing up to make a £15m bid to purchase Sheffield United frontman Iliman Ndiaye but will need to raise the funds first.
The Senegal international has played a crucial part in the Blades' successful season so far, returning 10 goals and seven assists in 28 games, helping lift the Yorkshire club up to second place in the Championship.
But, according to The Sun, the 22-year-old's prolific form in the second tier has attracted the eyes of the Everton bosses, who are keen to sign a new striker in a bid to help them avoid relegation this season.

Ndiaye would certainly be a fantastic signing for the Toffees, and with Sheffield United also now under a transfer embargo after defaulting on payments to another club, Paul Heckingbottom may be forced to part ways with the striker.
Much of his transfer fee would go into resolving those issues, yet it would be a big loss for Sheffield as they push for promotion to the Premier League.
Ndiye, who featured in the Blades' 1-0 win against Hull City on Friday night, spent several seasons at Boreham Wood, before joining the Sheffield United academy
