ILIMAN NDIAYE has revealed that Senegal team-mate Idrissa Gueye helped lure him to Goodison Park.

Everton confirmed the signing of the Marseille forward after completing the £15million transfer.

Ndiaye, 24, has signed a five-year contract as boss Sean Dyche and director of football Kevin Thelwell bolster the squad's attacking options.

Gueye also played a role in bringing Ndiaye to the club, with the new arrival saying: "The main reasons I wanted to join were how big the club is, its history and the part I can play in helping the team in the forward direction it is going.
