About this person

He played a key role for Shakhtar Donetsk during their first league win in 2002. Around the time of his move to Shakhtar, he was very highly rated and great things were expected of him. His attributes on Championship Manager 01/02 in particular, showed his perceived potential. However, one of the criticisms directed at N'Diaye was his supposed lack of passion and determination, something which may have halted his ascent to the top level of football.
