Al Diriyah prepares improved bid for Wilfred Ndidi

Saudi Arabian club Al Diriyah is reportedly preparing an improved transfer bid for Besiktas midfielder Wilfred Ndidi after the Turkish club rejected an initial €7 million offer.

Ndidi, the Nigerian national team captain, has become a vital part of the Besiktas squad since joining from Leicester City last summer. He recently demonstrated his impact during a UEFA qualifying match against Hradec Kralove, where he provided the assist for the winning goal.

As Besiktas considers the potential departure of their midfield anchor, the club is reportedly exploring a move for former Barcelona and AC Milan midfielder Franck Kessié on a free transfer.
