Spanish powerhouse Real Madrid are being linked with a move for Nigeria's most valuable player Wilfred Ndidi.

According to Spanish media outlet Defensa Central , Real Madrid have prioritized the signing of a holding midfielder in the upcoming transfer window to provide cover for Brazilian Casemiro.

Rennes teenager Eduardo Camavinga has been identified as Real Madrid's top target but the obstacle to a deal is that the France U21 international is valued at 75 million euros.

Real Madrid view Ndidi as a cheaper alternative to the Angolan-born midfielder who is wanted by almost all the big clubs in Europe.

Having said that, the Leicester City ace won't came that cheap as he is valued at 36 million euros by Transfermarket, the costliest Nigerian player ahead of Samuel Chukwueze and Victor Osimhen.

Ndidi has been a revelation since his arrival at Leicester City and he is contracted to the club until the end of the 2023-2024 season.

The 23-year-old has been linked with PSG, Arsenal, Barcelona and Manchester United ahead of the summer transfer window.
