In the summer, Wilfried Ndidi is a target for Tottenham and Newcastle United. The midfield player will undoubtedly become a free agent and depart Leicester City.
Spurs and Newcastle United are the teams fighting to get Leicester City midfielder on a free transfer, according to HITC. Although the 27-year-old FA Cup winner may have a choice of clubs to choose from when the season ends, the Foxes are within their rights to let him go.
Tottenham and Newcastle United in Wilfried Ndidi’s hunt
Leicester City is certain to lose some players, Wilfried Ndidi at the top of the list, whether they return to the Premier League or not. When his contract with the Foxes expires in the summer, the 27-year-old FA Cup winner will be free to join fellow countryman Kelechi Iheanacho in moving teams.
Considering how many Premier League sides are searching for a destroyer midfielder, Ndidi is a really intriguing name on the market right now. With his participation in the Premier League and this season in the Championship, he has played a significant role in Leicester City’s midfield over the years.
Although Leicester thought they had to hold onto him to give themselves the best opportunity of winning the Championship on the first try, Tottenham was eager to get him before January. The 27-year-old FA Cup winner is still a target for Spurs, who hope to add him to their lineup this summer. Ange Postecoglou may appreciate having a midfielder with his caliber of league experience.
Newcastle United is also interested in Ndidi; in the summer, the Magpies plan to make bids for Joelinton and Bruno Guimaraes, two of their current midfield players. As a result, they might require reinforcements, and given the FFP era, they might see his Bosman move as a profitable item.
Did Leicester City gamble with critical decisions?
A few years ago, Leicester City’s efforts in the transfer market were highly regarded by many. But in the seasons that followed, they committed a few mistakes that ended up costing them a lot of money for key players. For example, they are about to lose two additional proven players, in Ndidi and Iheanacho, and they lost Youri Tielemans on a free transfer last summer.
They took a significant risk believing those talents would help them succeed in the Championship, but they could have sold either in January or last summer to obtain a respectable price in return. The gamble has paid off given their current position at the table, but once more, their free movements will cause them to lose out on crucial funds.
