The Foxes have agreed a reported fee of £15 million for the Nigeria international, who has signed a five-and-a-half year deal with the Premier League champions
The 20-year-old is set to sign a five-and-a-half year deal with the Premier League champions, subject to securing a work permit.
The Foxes will reportedly pay in the region of £15 million for the Nigeria international as they look to stave off the threat of relegation.
Ndidi has already undergone his medical at the King Power Stadium and Leicester expect the formalities of his transfer to be completed later this week.
The 20-year-old has spent the past two seasons in the Belgian Pro League after joining Genk on his 18th birthday and helped the club finish top of Group F in the Europa League this season.
Since selling N’Golo Kante to Chelsea in July, Leicester have lacked the bite the France midfielder provided in their remarkable title-winning season.
