W. Ndidi is a 29-year-old defensive midfielder at Beşiktaş, rated 34.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 378th of 730 in the 1. Lig. An experienced operator, he has been an ever-present this season (82.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.72 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ndidi.
Judged on this season alone, Ndidi graded 41 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 11% of the 86 defensive midfielders in the 1. Lig, on 2 goals, 0 assists and 4.725 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 48 → 41). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 34, 47th of 86 of the 86 defensive midfielders in the 1. Lig. At 29 Ndidi is in his prime years, and a market index of 12.1 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Ndidi missed 7 games through injury (inactive, injury, international duty) out of roughly 34 this season. The 25 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
4.72 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 34.4, Ndidi carries the 47th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the 1. Lig of 86. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.72 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~22), then tapers with age. At 29, Ndidi sits on 12.1, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Ndidi's projected Rating — 34.4 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
