English Premier League (EPL) side Everton FC have indicated an interest in signing Leicester City and Super Eagles midfielder Wilfred Ndidi in the summer.
Everton’s interest in Ndidi was made known in a report published by TEAMtalk which revealed that the EPL club wants the player as a replacement for Amadou Onana, who could leave this summer.
Further reports also suggest that Sevilla and Real Sociedad are also interested in the 27-year-old player, whose present club, Leicester City, announced on Friday that they are in talks to renew his contract.
This comes days after Spanish La Liga side Barcelona joined the race to acquire the services of Ndidi from English Premier League side Leicester City.

This was made known in a report published by Sport, which revealed that the Spanish club is considering the acquisition of the player whose time at the King Power Stadium is about to elapse.
In its report, the outlet also stated that Barcelona’s interest demonstrates the rising demand for Ndidi’s skill set, especially given the Catalan giants’ desire to bolster their midfield alternatives.
Spanish publication Fichajes also reported last week that, West Ham, Aston Villa and Newcastle United have all shown a strong desire to sign Ndidi as a free agent.
