Popular Nigerian influencer Njideka has fueled rumours that she and Super Eagles midfielder Wilfred Ndidi are in a romantic relationship, Soccernet.ng reports.
Ndidi’s performances on the pitch have attracted a lot of criticism in recent months. At club level, he is considered a bench warmer under coach Vincenzo Italiano.
Then, at international level, there have consistently been calls for him to get benched despite his position as Super Eagles captain. In fact, in the last game against Guinea-Bissau, he was one of the poorest performers on the night.

But while his performances on the pitch have continued to draw mixed reactions, Ndidi’s personal life has also been in the spotlight this year.
Earlier this year, rumours emerged that he and his wife Chidinma had separated after spending the last seven years together. However, neither the player nor Chidinma has come out to confirm this.
But in the meantime, there have also been rumours that he might be in a romantic relationship with Njideka, a popular Nigerian social media personality.

Nigeria took on Madagascar in their opening game of the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers last Friday in Uyo. And Nigeria ran out with a 2-1 victory.
Ndidi played the entire 90 minutes in that fixture. However, away from his performance on the pitch, Njideka was watching from the stands. But that was not even what caught the eye.
The interesting thing was that she was donning Ndidi’s unmistakable number 4 Nigeria jersey. She even made sure to take pictures of herself looking very beautiful in that shirt.

But away from that, both of them have reportedly been spotted at the same location at the same time.
For example, last year, they shared pictures of themselves on their personal pages while on vacation in Spain.

On Father’s Day, Njideka even shared a photo of herself and a man in an elevator. Although she did not tag Ndidi, and the man—who appeared to be kissing her neck—did not reveal his face to the camera, he definitely looked like Ndidi.
Neither of the two has confirmed that they are together as of the time of this report. But judging by the posts on social media, it seems like there is something brewing between the two of them.
