Blades bright spark eyes dream Marseille return
Sheffield United star Illiam Ndiaye has revealed that he “dreams” of returning to Marseille one day.
Ndiaye, 22, has seen his stocks significantly rise in the last few seasons.
The ex-Rising Ballers FC star signed with Sheffield at 19 and has gone on to play six times for Senegal, including three at November-December’s World Cup.
But having been born in France, and been on Marseille’s books as a kid, Ndiaye “dreams” of returning to the Ligue 1 giants.
Speaking to French-based journalist, Said Amdaa, Ndiaye said: “I’m an Olympique de Marseille fan. I dream of going back there to become a Marseille legend, I can’t stop thinking about it. And even if it’s not now, if it’s in several years, I will continue to work.”
Ndiaye has nine goals and five assists in the Championship this term.
