Leicester City have agreed a fee with Besiktas for Wilfred Ndidi, worth around £8.5 million.
Ndidi has attracted interest from a number of clubs in the Premier League and Europe, including Everton, Fenerbahce, and two clubs in the Bundesliga, after his buy-out clause was reduced following Leicester’s relegation.
