Liverpool's rivalry with Everton is as fierce and deep-seated as they come in English football.
The two clubs, who until this year were separated by the short distance across Stanley Park, are two of the Premier League's best-supported teams.
Everton attacker 'wanted' by three Premier League clubs - including Liverpool
Due to the two teams' local rivalry, though, few players have ever been transferred between the clubs.
In 2000, Nick Barmby completed a highly-controversial move from Everton to Liverpool, becoming the first player to 'cross the park' in over 40 years.
Two years later, Portuguese defender Abel Xavier made the same switch.
Now, according to French outlet FootMercato, one Everton player is being linked with a similar move after resurrecting his top flight career.
Liverpool have reportedly enquired about the availability of Senegalese forward Iliman Ndiaye, who joined the Toffees from Olympique Marseille back in 2024.
This term, Ndiaye has been one of David Moyes' best players, playing primarily off the left-wing, starting each of the team's 13 league fixtures.
FootMercato claim: "Manchester City, Tottenham, and Liverpool have made inquiries about signing the former AS Dakar Sacre-Coeur player.
"Needing to bring in a new striker in the coming months, these three clubs are interested in recruiting the former Marseille player, who is high on their shortlist."
Ndiaye has scored 15 goals in 52 outings for Everton, and is much-improved compared to his time at Stade Velodrome where he managed only four goals in 46 games.
English football appears to suit the 25-year-old, who also excelled at Sheffield United prior to his Marseille switch.
