Atletico Madrid has decided not to pursue Super Eagles and Leicester City midfielder Wilfred Ndidi, opting to focus on other midfield targets according to reports.
Ndidi being offered to the La Liga club but the club prioritize Tottenham’s Pierre-Emile Højbjerg and Feyenoord’s Mats Wieffer.
Ndidi has garnered attention from several clubs, including Barcelona, Tottenham, Aston Villa, Newcastle, and Wolves.
His extensive Premier League experience and midfield quality make him a sought-after player.
Wilfred Ndidi also played a crucial role in Leicester City’s promotion back to the Premier League.
Ndidi’s contract with Leicester City is set to expire next month, and a potential move to Atletico Madrid would have given the Nigeria international the opportunity to play in the UEFA Champions League next season.
However, Atletico’s interest lies elsewhere.
