Tottenham Hotspur enters the race to sign Wilfred Ndidi

According HITC, Tottenham Hotspur have joined the race to sign Leicester City midfielder Wilfred Ndidi for free transfer.

The Nigerian star has been with the Foxes for the last 7 years but is increasingly likely to leave them even if they are promoted back to the first division. Ndidi will be available on a free transfer and his contract expires on June 30. The Spurs are not alone in the search for Newcastle UnitedEdit and Aston Villa Also interested in your services.

Experience

Hojbjerg has been a fringe player in the team since coach Ange Postecoglou took charge of the club last summer. The Dane had regular minutes when Yves Bissouma and Pape Matar Sarr were at the African Cup of Nations, but he has once again fallen to the bench. With additional competition from Rodrigo Bentancur, he is likely to move on this summer.

Ndidi could be seen as a possible replacement for Hojbjerg at the end of the season. The 27-year-old has a wealth of Premier League experience with 192 appearances to his name. His presence has been key in the Foxes' Championship promotion quest and they have struggled this season every time he has been sidelined with an injury.

If he prioritizes his minutes, he could end up at Wolverhampton Wanderers or Brighton & Hove Albion, who would also be interested in signing him.
