Atletico Madrid are keeping a close watch on Nigerian midfielder Wilfred Ndidi as they look to bolster their squad ahead of the summer transfer window.
With speculation surrounding the futures of several key players, including Rodrigo De Paul—who has been linked with a move to Inter Miami to reunite with Lionel Messi—Atletico are actively exploring midfield reinforcements.
Ndidi has emerged as one of their primary targets, with the Spanish club closely following his situation at Leicester City.
The 28-year-old, who remains under contract with Leicester until 2027, faces an uncertain future as the club battles to secure promotion back to the Premier League.
With Leicester’s top-flight status hanging in the balance, interest in the Nigerian international has intensified, with Atletico Madrid considering him as a viable addition to their midfield ranks.
However, Atletico will face stiff competition for his signature. Both AS Monaco and Real Betis are reportedly monitoring Ndidi’s availability and could challenge the Spanish side for his services when the transfer window opens.
As Atletico Madrid continue their squad planning, Ndidi’s future could be a key storyline in the upcoming transfer market, with multiple European clubs vying for the experienced midfielder.
