GALATASARAY EYEING NDIDI SWOOP
Read Time:1 Minute, 21 Second
Galatasaray are interested in signing Nigeria international Wilfred Ndidi from relegated side Leicester City, according to a report coming out of Turkey.
Since Ndidi is entering the final year of his contract, the Foxes must sell him now in order to avoid losing him for free in the summer of 2019 as they prepare for a start in the Championships after being demoted from the Premier League last season.
The 26-year-old failed to reach his peak last season making 27 Premier League games due to his struggle for fitness in the last two seasons.
The defensive midfielder moved to the King Power Stadium from Belgian Pro League club, Genk, in a £17m deal in 2018.
Ndidi was part of the side that won the FA Cup under Brendan Rodgers in 2021 and finished fifth in the table twice.
Ndidi is currently valued at €25m and Leicester are hoping to cash in on him to avoid losing for free next season.
The Nigerian is not short of suitors as he has been linked with several clubs.
Newly appointed Celtic manager, Rodgers, wants a reunion with Ndidi and is looking to make the midfielder one of his first signings at the club.
Saudi Arabian club Al Shabab are also ready to submit an irresistible offer to tempt the defensive midfielder to dump European football for Asia.
Pesindeyiz Galatasaray, on Wednesday, tweeted that the Turkish kings Galatasaray have also joined in the race for the Nigerian.
“Galatasaray are interested in Wilfred Ndidi from Leicester City. Ndidi, who did not want to play in the Championship, announced his decision to leave Leicester City.”
