Wilfred Ndidi is reportedly among Brendan Rodgers targets as the new Celtic boss looks to raid Leicester - but there are some staggering numbers behind a potential deal.
And the new Parkhead boss may have unwittingly priced the Scottish Premiership champions out of a deal with his previous comments on the midfielder during his time as Foxes boss. Parkhead majority shareholder Dermot Desmond is set to hand Rodgers a bumper transfer kitty following his return to Celtic Park with the Irishman desperate to build a side capable of making a mark on the Champions League while continuing to dominate in Scotland.
Reports suggest that the 26-year-old has been viewed by Rodgers as fitting the profile of player he would like to add to his revamped squad - who has just a year left on his current Leicester contract following their relegation from the English Premier League. He cost the relegated side £17million when he made the move to the King Power Stadium in 2017, but Enzo Maresca and the club risk the player leaving for nothing in January if they don't sell this summer.
