Everton are rumoured to be lining up an early summer signing in the form of Wilfried Ndidi who is out of contract at Leicester this summer.
With the Blues’ still hidebound by crippling financial issues, there appears to be little point in entertaining any speculation linking the Club with players who will command a transfer fee this summer but free agent and loan acquisitions will very much be the order of the day.
And Sean Dyche is likely to be on the lookout for a central midfielder to cover the expected departure of André Gomes when his contract expires which makes the likes of Ndidi and Burnley’s Josh Brownhill plausible targets.
According to Sacha Tavolieiri on Twitter/X, Everton have offered the 27-year-old Nigerian a deal but Sport Witness highlight other Italian media reports that the likes of Crystal Palace, West Ham and Juventus have all expressed an interest in signing him.
An experienced campaigner, Ndidi has played 222 league games for the Foxes and been capped 56 times by his country to date.
