Crystal Palace could join the chase for Club Bruges' 23-year-old Nigeria midfielder Raphael Onyedika. (Sun)
Eagles top spy Dougie Freedman watched the Nigeria international in action for the Belgian side last week and is ready to make a move for him

Like where Madrid? I think a mid table EPL team like this would be a heck of a move for him career wise and money wise.

He is bigger than CP. He won't settle for a relegation bound team unlike your useless Senegalese players at Metz that can't shoot properly and lost to a bunch of IDF solders.

If he going to England it has to be ti a team where he can play right away. Love to see him at Brighton or Brentford.

Crystal Palace are interested in Leicester City and Nigeria midfielder Wilfred Ndidi, 27, on a free transfer this summer. (Talksport)

The major reason for the attraction is because he will be out of contract, so they don’t have to pay a transfer fee for a player of Ndidi’s pedigree

Doesn't it make more sense for Ndidi to stay at Leicester if they win promotion? Except Palace may be offering more money?

They were linked to Ndidi and K.Iheanacho last season. All these “Linkings” without connection. We are tired!

Economically, that doesnt make sense for them. If they are in a cash-crunch, Ndidi is still cheaper than a PL level replacement:
Ndidi - he is on £75,000 (£3,900,000 per year). Lets say they increase it to £90,000 (£ 4,680,000 per yer) + £ 1,500,000 sign on bonus.
Cost of Ndidi (minus other bonuses) - £ 6,180,000
New PL level player of same caliber - This player will NOT accept less than £ 90,000 (£ 4,680,000 per yer). And a transfer fee will be upwards of £ 25,000,000, if they are lucky! We all know players like Gallagher is going for £50,000,000... etc.
Cost of New PL Player of same calibee (minus other bonuses) - £ 29,680,000

At this rate it’s not guaranteed that they will win promotion. They once were in1st place and had a 17pts lead and now they’re barely in 2nd place which is the last spot for automatic promotion. If they slip up they will find themselves in a 4 team playoffs which can go any way.

hey do not pay attention to the confused career student above. Leicester are currently top of the Championship by 1 point with a game in hand . They play Southampton today. 2 games left for them this season . A win today and they have one leg in the EPL for next season

Ndidi needs a new challenge.
He don try for Leicester, abeg.
If they stay, Eze and Olise are two of the most naturally gifted midfielders in the EPL.
