Nigeria and Leicester City midfielder, Wilfred Ndidi, yesterday completed his €9.5million switch to Turkish giants Beşiktaş.
According to reports from Turkey, Ndidi is expected to bring his wealth of experience to bolster Beşiktaş’ as they seek to build a formidable squad ahead of next season.
Ndidi is expected to earn €4 million per season, excluding bonuses and image rights. Over the first three years, that amounts to €12 million, and should he stay for the fourth year, the total would rise to €16 million.
The move also ends Ndidi’s seven-year spell in England, where he became one of the Premier League’s most consistent defensive midfielders.
With an image shared on Soccernet.ng’s social media page, the deal was finalised following a successful medical and personal terms agreement in Istanbul earlier this week.
Ndidi’s contract includes a three-year base deal with an optional fourth year, potentially keeping him at the club until 2028.
