Al Diriyah plans improved bid for Ndidi
Wilfred Ndidi is attracting strong interest from Saudi Arabian club Al Diriyah, who are preparing a better offer to sign him from Besiktas. The Turkish club previously rejected a €7m bid, but Al Diriyah is determined to secure the Super Eagles captain. Ndidi has become a key player for Besiktas since joining from Leicester City and recently made a significant impact in a UEFA Conference League qualifier. Besiktas may be preparing for his possible exit by exploring options for a replacement.
