Turkey: Super Eagles captain Ndidi faces ban

Beşiktaş captain Wilfred Ndidi is at risk of suspension ahead of next weekend’s Turkish Süper Lig fixture against Antalyaspor.

The former Leicester City midfielder will face a one-match ban if he receives a yellow card in Sunday’s Istanbul derby between Fenerbahçe and Beşiktaş.

 

According to Süper Lig regulations, any player who accumulates four yellow cards over the course of the season is automatically handed a one-game suspension. Ndidi currently has three bookings to his name this term.

 

His first caution came on his league debut against Eyüpspor, followed by additional bookings in matches against Göztepe and Kasımpaşa.

 

Despite this, Ndidi has remained a key figure under manager Sergen Yalçın, starting 20 of the 21 matches he has been available for this season.

 

He was absent for December’s encounter with Rizespor due to international duty with Nigeria at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations. After returning, an injury sustained in Morocco sidelined him for back-to-back fixtures against Kayserispor and Eyüpspor in January before he was later granted compassionate leave in February.

 

Meanwhile, fellow Nigerian internationals Paul Onuachu and Victor Osimhen have already served suspensions this season in Turkey due to yellow-card accumulation.
