Iliman Ndiaye's Everton exit has taken another twist.

The likes of Arsenal and Manchester City had been linked with a move for the Hill Dickinson Stadium star.

Tottenham seemed to be winning the race for his signature, after an agreement in principle was reached with the Blues.

He is understood to have travelled down to London for a medical, but now the Citizens may be back in the mix.

The situation is developing quickly and there could be more to come before the 11pm deadline on Tuesday.

Where is Iliman Ndiaye's most likely destination?

Ndiaye may end up at Man City, despite the agreement and potential medical with Spurs.

A report from Sacha Tavolieri on Monday claimed that City have re-opened talks with the Merseysiders over a move.

It states that they want to "move quickly" after Liverpool's stance on Cody Gakpo changed.

The Reds have decided to keep the Dutchman, and his exit seems to be off the cards.

It is understood that Enzo Maresca's side are progressing fast over a potential swoop for the Senegal ace.

Which move would be better for Everton star?

While Spurs have spent vast fortunes to try and overhaul their side that finished 17th twice, it has not worked so far.

They were defeated by Brentford on the opening day of the Premier League, and followed that up with a loss to Newcastle.

City, meanwhile, have won their opening two league matches and are in the Champions League, with European football not being something that the Lilywhites could offer.

Therefore, it would make sense if Ndiaye was holding out for a move to the Etihad Stadium rather than Roberto De Zerbi's side, given his desire to play in Europe's top competition.

It remains to be seen where he ends up, but the move to join Maresca's side seems to be gathering pace at a rapid rate, so that is the most likely destination.
