Barcelona is interested in signing Nigerian midfielder Wilfred Ndidi next summer.
Ndidi’s contract with Leicester expires in June 2024, and he may move to Barcelona for the 2024/25 season on a free transfer. Although he hasn’t extended his contract with Leicester, he continues to play for the team this season.
Leicester is performing well in the EFL Championship, and they are the favourites to win the title. Barcelona, along with other clubs like Juventus, Bayern Munich, and Atletico Madrid, is interested in Ndidi.
However, Leicester’s high asking price in the past deterred potential buyers. Ndidi was named the EFL Championship’s Player of the Month in September

Can Barca sign Nidid next summer?
Barcelona’s interest in Ndidi might seem unusual, given that he plays in the English second tier. But Barcelona is struggling to manage their finances and needs to balance their budget.
They are even willing to consider offers for their current first-team players to comply with La Liga’s spending cap. Signing Ndidi, a talented international midfielder, for free is an attractive opportunity for them.
