Race for Ndidi heating up: French Ligue 1 trio do battle with Everton for Super Eagles midfielder 

The race for the signing of Super Eagles midfielder Wilfred Ndidi who could become a free agent by the end of this month is heating up.

According to Footmercato, French giants Olympique Marseille and AS Monaco are targeting a move for the Leicester City middleman who is also on the radar of Everton as well as Olympique Lyonnais.

Marseille are seeking to bolster their squad this summer with the midfield being one of their priorities.

The nine-time French champions risk the possibility of losing Jordan Veretout, Pape Gueye and Geoffrey Kondogbia while Jean Onana is also set to return to his parent club Besiktas after the expiration of his loan spell.

Thus, the need for the Olympians to bolster their midfield with Ndidi being one of their targets but they aren't the only French side eyeing the Nigeria international.

AS Monaco who came second in the Ligue 1 last season are also eyeing a move for the Nigeria international who has become a hot property due to his contractual situation with Leicester City.

The Foxes are trying hard to retain the services of Ndidi beyond this summer and are running out of time with his current contract set to end in ten days' time.
