Nigeria's Super Eagles midfielder Wilfred Ndidi is on the verge of joining the array of Nigerian players who play in the lucrative French Ligue One, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

 Having secured UEFA Europa League football for next season, Olympique Lyonnais are looking to bolster their squad this summer. Targets are already being identified and the Nigerian star is one of the players focused on.

Former champions moved for Ndidi last summer but to no avail; the deal was considered too complex at the time. 

However, the Nigerian midfielder, who has just helped guide Leicester City back to the Premier League, is out of contract this summer. 

Lyon are looking to bring Ndidi in on a free transfer, the Ligue 1 side may face competition from Everton and Real Betis.
