Nottingham Forest have shown interest in completing a move for Leicester City Wilfred Ndidi this summer window, MySportDab reports.
In a bid to bolster their midfield options, Nottingham Forest has entered the competitive race to secure the signature of Leicester City’s talented midfielder, Wilfred Ndidi.
The pursuit of Ndidi comes as Forest’s alternative target, Ibrahim Sangare from PSV Eindhoven, appears financially out of reach for the club.
The Telegraph has reported that Forest has shifted their focus to the 26-year-old Nigerian star, who has also attracted attention from Scottish outfit Celtic and potential suitors from Saudi Arabia.
Leicester City, well aware of Ndidi’s immense value, is reportedly demanding a transfer fee of approximately £20 million for the midfielder’s services.
Ndidi, an integral part of the Foxes’ setup, is rumored to be considering a departure from the club following their relegation from the highly competitive Premier League.
The Nigerian international made his move to Leicester City in January 2017, transitioning from KRC Genk in the Belgian Pro League.
Since then, he has earned widespread recognition for his exceptional performances in the midfield, showcasing his tenacious tackling, ball-winning abilities, and astute positional awareness.
While Forest’s interest adds to the growing list of potential destinations for Ndidi, the player’s future remains uncertain as clubs vie for his coveted talents.
The allure of Forest’s proposition, coupled with previous links to Celtic and interest from Saudi Arabian clubs, presents Ndidi with an array of options to consider as he evaluates his next career move.
As the transfer window progresses, all eyes are on Ndidi’s decision, with the footballing world eager to see where he will ply his trade in the upcoming season.
His departure from Leicester City could happen, if it comes to fruition, and will undoubtedly leave a void in the Foxes’ midfield, but it could herald a new chapter and fresh challenges for the Nigerian midfield maestro.
