Injury Blow for Beşiktaş: Wilfred Ndidi Sidelined After Istanbul Derby

Overview Beşiktaş midfielder Wilfred Ndidi has been sidelined following a hamstring injury sustained during the club's recent 1-0 defeat to rival Fenerbahçe SK in the Istanbul derby.

Details According to multiple sports outlets, the Super Eagles defensive midfielder was forced to leave the pitch due to the injury. Medical assessments have confirmed that the setback will rule him out of action for approximately two weeks, causing him to miss the upcoming Süper Lig fixture against Antalyaspor. Despite being considered one of the top defensive midfielders in Turkey since his arrival from Leicester City for €8 million last summer, Ndidi's absence represents a significant tactical blow to the squad.
