Renowned football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano revealed the news on Wednesday night. Romano tweeted: “Wilfred Ndidi, set to sign new deal at Leicester City as final details are being discussed—then all sealed. Exclusive details: contract until June 2027, three-year deal, with release clause also included. Despite more than five bids, Ndidi decides to stay and sign.”
Ndidi’s decision to remain with Leicester is a significant boost for the club. The 26-year-old midfielder has been a key player for the Foxes since joining from Genk in 2017, known for his defensive prowess and ability to control the midfield.
His new contract includes a release clause, ensuring Leicester retains some leverage should other clubs come calling in the future.
This extension highlights Ndidi’s commitment to Leicester City, where he has developed into one of the Premier League’s top midfielders.
With the new deal set to be finalized, Leicester fans can look forward to more standout performances from the Nigerian international in the coming seasons.
