After enduring challenging and high-pressure seasons at Manchester City, Jack Grealish has found his form again following his move to Everton. He recently shared his thoughts on who he considers the most technically skilled player in the English Premier League—a choice that might surprise many.
The English midfielder specifically praised his teammate, Senegalese player Iliman Ndiaye, for his individual abilities. According to Grealish, when it comes to pure technical skill—such as ball control, movement on the field, and dribbling—Ndiaye has no equal in the Premier League.
— "Ndiaye is the most technically skilled player in the league. If we talk specifically about pure talent, there is no doubt in my mind," Grealish said in an interview with Goal.
In addition, he shared his opinion about one of Arsenal's key players, Bukayo Saka. According to Grealish, Saka is a top-tier player and one of the best wingers in the world. However, his game is more focused on efficiency and action, placing him behind Ndiaye in terms of technical skill.
This season, Iliman Ndiaye has played in 18 matches across all competitions, scoring 4 goals and providing 2 assists. His freedom on the pitch, confidence in ball control, and unexpected dribbles have added a new dynamic to Everton's performance.
Grealish's statement has reignited discussions about the balance between technical skill and efficiency in the Premier League. It can be said that Ndiaye is becoming an increasingly intriguing and dangerous player not just for his team but for the entire league as well.
