Wilfred Ndidi faces the prospect of missing the remainder of the Turkish Super Lig season after sustaining a Grade 2 hamstring injury. The scan results confirmed a six-week recovery period, effectively ending his campaign with Besiktas as only six weeks of the regular season remain. The Super Eagles captain was substituted during last weekend's Istanbul derby against Fenerbahce after feeling discomfort in his hamstring. In that same match, Ndidi picked up his fourth yellow card of the season, triggering an automatic one-match suspension. His absence compounds a difficult season for the club, which sits in fourth place, trailing the league leaders by a significant margin. The injury deals a blow to both club and country, as Ndidi has been a consistent presence in Nigeria's midfield. Besiktas must now navigate the final stretch of the league without one of their key midfielders, as they aim to secure a European qualification spot.
