Leicester City midfielder Wilfred Ndidi has undergone a medical ahead of moving to Besiktas in a reported £8m deal.

The 28-year-old Nigerian was in Istanbul on Thursday and his transfer is expected to be confirmed in the next 24 hours.

He has been with the Foxes since January 2017 and won the FA Cup, Community Shield and gained promotion to the Premier League in 2023-24 before the club suffered a second relegation in three years last season.

Following his medical, Besiktas released an interview with Ndidi, wearing the club's shirt, on X in which the midfielder expressed his excitement in joining the Turkish side.
