Turkish Super Lig powerhouse Galatasaray has intensified their pursuit of Super Eagles star Wilfred Ndidi by submitting a formal offer.

According to sources in Turkey, the Istanbul-based club has presented Ndidi with a three-year contract, including an option for an additional year.

This move comes as Galatasaray’s arch-rivals Fenerbahce also expressed interest in the Nigeria international, having tabled their proposal earlier.

Ndidi, whose current contract with Leicester City expires at the end of June 2024, will be available as a free agent.

The Nigerian is expected to make a decision on his future in the coming days.

Leicester City, however, remain keen on retaining Ndidi’s services and have engaged in discussions with the player regarding a potential contract extension.

Ndidi, who joined Leicester City in 2017 from Belgian side KRC Gent, now faces a crucial decision about the next step in his career.
