Leicester City v Stoke City - Premier League — Bought from Genk in January 2017, Wilfred Ndidi is arguably Leicester's best signing since winning the league three years ago

Bought from Genk in January 2017, Wilfred Ndidi is arguably Leicester's best signing since winning the league three years ago.

Solid in tackles, great with the distribution of the ball and an eye for goal especially from long distance, the 22-year-old Nigerian ticks all the boxes for a complete midfielder. Little wonder he has been linked with a move to some of the biggest teams in England and Europe in recent times

After an eye-catching display for Leicester and a commanding performance for Nigeria at the 2018 World Cup in Russia, Ndidi should be able to consolidate on last season's outing and take the next step towards becoming one of the most dependable players in the premier league.
