Liverpool Plot Shock Raid on Everton’s Star Man in Stunning Merseyside Twist

The January transfer window is shaping up to deliver one of the most explosive sagas of the season, as Liverpool have reportedly launched a bold move to sign one of Everton’s standout stars. If completed, it would be the first direct transfer between the fierce Merseyside rivals in more than two decades — a move guaranteed to send shockwaves across English football. The last time someone crossed Stanley Park was Nick Barmby in 2000, a switch still talked about today. Now, history may be about to repeat itself.

Despite spending a massive £450 million in the summer rebuild, Arne Slot is reportedly pushing for more firepower, with Liverpool sitting eighth and still searching for attacking spark. That has led the Reds to the doorstep of Everton’s breakout talent Ndiaye, who cost the Toffees £16.9 million and has quickly become one of their most dangerous and versatile players. After shining on the left last season and scoring 11 goals, Ndiaye has switched to the right this year — and he hasn’t slowed down, delivering goals, assists, and relentless defensive work.

According to FootMercato, Liverpool have already made enquiries about Ndiaye’s availability, joining Manchester City and Tottenham in the chase. But Liverpool are believed to be the most aggressive side in the race, with scouts valuing the Senegalese forward as a perfect fit for Slot’s attack. His highlight this season—a stunning solo strike at the Stadium of Light—has only boosted interest, while his ball-winning numbers rank among the best in the league.

Manchester City, still searching for a wide attacker after failing to land Rodrygo, are monitoring Ndiaye but are also considering Bournemouth’s Semenyo, whose £65 million release clause becomes active in January. Tottenham, meanwhile, are in desperate need of attacking reinforcements as injuries to Maddison, Kulusevski, and Solanke have left Thomas Frank’s team lacking creativity. With Spurs sitting in the bottom half of the table, a major winter signing is likely.

But despite strong interest from two Premier League giants, Liverpool are the ones making the most noise — and the prospect of them convincing an Everton star to cross Stanley Park is nothing short of astonishing. If the Reds pull it off, it would be one of the most dramatic and controversial transfers in modern Merseyside history. The rivalry is already fierce… but this move could ignite it like never before
