Turkey Super Lig side, Besiktas, has announced the signing of Wilfred Ndidi from Leicester City.
The Nigeria international has signed a three-year deal with an option of another year with the side ahead of the new football season.
The 27-year-old has been a mainstay at Leicester City since joining from Genk in 2017 and played a key role in the Foxes’ Premier League campaign last season.
“Beşiktaş Futbol A.Ş. has notified the Public Disclosure Platform (KAP) that an agreement has been reached for the transfer of professional football player Wilfred Onyinye Ndidi,” the club said in a statement.
“An agreement has been reached with the club and the professional football player Wilfred Onyinye Ndidi regarding his transfer. Ndidi has signed a 3+1 year contract.”
Ndidi’s capture is meant to bolster Besiktas’ midfield ahead of the 2025/26 campaign.
The club have already made several additions in the current transfer window and views the Super Eagles midfielder as a vital piece in their squad rebuild.
As part of the transfer process, Ndidi underwent a comprehensive medical assessment in Istanbul earlier on Thursday.
