Al-Ittihad Submit €10.5m Bid For Ndidi
Saudi Pro League champions Al-Ittihad have submitted a formal offer worth €10.5 million for Nigerian midfielder Wilfred Ndidi, according to reports from Turkish outlet Milliyet.
The proposed deal could increase to €12.5 million through performance-related add-ons, although Beşiktaş are yet to respond to the offer.
The Turkish club is expected to consult newly appointed head coach Vincenzo Italiano, who will assess Ndidi's role in his plans before making a final decision on the player's future.
Ndidi, 28, joined Beşiktaş on a free transfer from Leicester City last summer and quickly became a key figure in midfield. During his debut campaign, the Super Eagles star made 31 Süper Lig appearances, scoring two goals and providing one assist.
A decision on the Saudi club's bid is expected once Italiano completes his evaluation of the squad ahead of the new season.
