Despite being a free agent, CeltsAreHere can reveal that Ndidi’s next move seems unlikely to be to Celtic Park.

The Daily Record had previously reported the possibility of Ndidi joining Celtic, but CeltsAreHere can now exclusively confirm that these claims are unfounded.

His agent told us “Wilfred is unfortunately not coming to Celtic. The news is false”.

The 27-year-old midfielder has attracted interest from several Premier League clubs and is expected to continue his career elsewhere.

He would’ve been a great signing for Celtic, who were interested in the player last year while he was still contracted to Leicester City. Despite being in the last year of his contract, the side demanded a fee of £17 million. He played a big part as the Foxes regained automatic promotion to the Premier League, winning the Championship at the first time of asking.
