With the close of the summer transfer window in England on Friday, Super Eagles box-to-box midfielder Wilfred Ndidi will continue his trade in the Championship with Leicester City, despite Premier League interest, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The 26-year-old will be staying in the Championship, according to a report from Darren Witcoop. 

Recall the Nigerian was linked with a summer move to Liverpool, Bayern Munich, and Nottingham Forest.

The journalist has said that he, and a few others, are now going to be staying with the Foxes for the foreseeable future.

It was reported by Fabrizio Romano that Nottingham Forest had presented an opening proposal to the club to sign Ndidi. 

However, Forest have gone in a different direction with their pursuit of a defensive-minded midfielder.

Witcoop also said that the collapsed move now means QPR's Ilias Chair will not be moving to Leicester. 

The Nigerian international has less than a year remaining on his contract.
