Leicester City midfielder Wilfred Ndidi is reportedly attracting interest from three Premier League clubs following the Foxes' relegation.

Leicester City’s Wilfred Ndidi is reportedly a target for three Premier League clubs ahead of the summer transfer window. 

The Nigerian is expected to leave the King Power Stadium following Leicester's relegation to the Championship, with a £9 million release clause in his contract.

Ndidi, who has spent eight years in the East Midlands and was previously praised as one of the Premier League's best midfielders, has been a consistent presence for Leicester this season.

As per the report, these clubs are reportedly looking to bolster their midfield options for the upcoming season and view Ndidi as a valuable addition to their squads.

Signing for Fulham could see Ndidi join compatriots Calvin Bassey and Alex Iwobi at Craven Cottage.

In addition to interest from within England, there are also reports of potential interest from Saudi Arabia, with Al Ahli said to be considering strengthening their squad. 

However, it is understood that the Saudi Pro League club are in the early stages of their interest and have yet to initiate discussions with the Leicester man.

Ndidi's current contract with the Foxes runs until the summer of 2027; however, a move away from the club this summer appears likely, with several Premier League teams vying for his signature.

What’s next for Ndidi?

Ndidi could feature for the 26th time in the league for Leicester in Saturday’s Premier League contest with another relegated outfit in Southampton.
