Professional career[edit]

The option to buy was exercised on 1 July 2023.

In the last minutes of September 4, Ndiaye inks a three-year contract, with an option for another year, with the UEFA Champions League participant Red Star Belgrade, in a transfer worth 4 million euros,[6] along with Korean Hwang In-beom. In his new team, he made his UEFA Champions League debut against Manchester City match.[7] His first score in that League is against Young Boys on 4 October 2023.[8]
