WILFRED Ndidi is close to completing a transfer switch from Leicester City to Besiktas in Turkey.
The Super Eagles midfielder will cost the Turkish Super Lig side a transfer fee of €9.5 million, according to Sky Sports Germany.
The outlet reported today that Ndidi would be having his Besiktas medical tomorrow before sealing the move to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side.
Ndidi, 28, is expected to sign a three-year contract with Besiktas, who finished fourth in Turkey’s top flight last season, after almost a decade with the Foxes.
The Nigeria international joined Leicester City from KRC Genk of Belgium for €17.6m in January 2017 and grew to become one of the best defensive midfielders in the English Premier League.
Ndidi has made 303 appearances for Leicester City, scoring 18 goals and making 22 assists.
Last season, he played 28 times in the Premier League and contributed five assists as Leicester City got relegated to the Championship.
