Wilfred Ndidi, a midfielder for Super Eagles and Leicester City, has stated he is willing to play away from the King Power in the upcoming campaign.

The 27-year-old was a crucial part of Leicester City's team when they won the EFL Championships and returned to the top division.

The Super Eagles midfielder has a contract which will expire in June with the club revealing that all contract talks are on hold until the end of the season.

However, Nidid is open to making a move to another club when they come calling with many rumours surrounding his departure.

The Super Eagles midfielder, who was confirmed relegated on the final matchday of the previous season, is happy to be in the English Premier League.

With Leicester’s promotion to the Premier League, Ndidi is also considering the possibility of playing for a top Premier League team next season. 

The midfielder has stated that he would love to join a Premier League team in the top six. Aside from that, the ex-Genk man is considering leaving England.

According to reports from Complete Sports, Nidid said, “It is good to be back to the Premier League after being relegated and struggling back to EPL is something we don’t want to go back to again. 

“I think morale is high, expectation is high, we have to ensure we do not return to the Championship. It’s a tough place to play.”

He was also asked about a possible transfer in the summer and he said, “If a good chance comes, I won’t mind trying my luck elsewhere but for now I remain a Leicester City player.”

Ndidi respects his position with The Foxes even if he is planning to leave because he has a contract with them that expires in June.

The midfielder has been linked with a move to Barcelona, Fenerbahçe, Galatasaray, Sevilla, Tottenham Hotspur, Newcastle, West Ham and Aston Villa as a free agent.

However, Leicester are looking to keep the Super Eagles star this summer and they are not ready to let him leave.
