Beşiktaş has put forth a proposal for Leicester City midfielder Wilfred Ndidi as they seek to strengthen their squad in preparation for the 2025/26 Süper Lig season.
Transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano has verified that discussions are currently in progress, with both teams engaged in active negotiations.
Ndidi, aged 28, has emerged as a key target for Beşiktaş following the departure of Gedson Fernandes to Spartak Moscow.
The Nigerian international, who has two years left on his existing contract, may be permitted to leave Leicester after their recent drop to the Championship.
Since joining from Belgian club Genk in 2017, Ndidi has made over 300 appearances for the Foxes and played a crucial role in their FA Cup and Community Shield triumphs.
Renowned for his defensive acumen and ability to win the ball, the midfielder has been one of Leicester’s most reliable players despite the club’s recent struggles.

Although Manchester United, Juventus, and Borussia Dortmund have all shown interest in Ndidi during recent transfer windows, Beşiktaş is the first to initiate a formal inquiry.
The Turkish giants view Ndidi as a vital addition to their midfield and are hopeful about concluding a deal.
Nevertheless, personal terms have yet to be agreed upon, although discussions between the two clubs continue, with Beşiktaş optimistic about reaching a comprehensive agreement before the Süper Lig’s kickoff this weekend.
