Leicester City of England midfielder, Wilfred Onyinyen Ndidi has received a strong tip that he will eventually follow his former teammate, Harry Maguire to Manchester United, as The Foxes will not be able to ward off pressure for his transfer for too long, megasportsarena.com reports.
This is the stimulating verdict of NBC Sports football expert, Joe Prince-Wright, who noted that interest from United in Ndidi has resurfaced in the transfer mill, and the likelihood of the former Racing Genk of Belgium star making the move to Old Trafford keeps growing with each passing day.
Although United’s English Premier League rivals, Liverpool and Arsenal are also sad to be n the hunt for Ndidi, who Leicester insist they are not ready to sell, Prince-Wright is of a view that The Foxes would eventually be forced to make a sale under pressure, and the team that s most likely to gain from their capitulation will be The Red Devils.
Prince-Wright added: “In the latest transfer news Man United have been linked with a move for Wilfred Ndidi and Liverpool have an admirer in Wout Weghorst. As for Ndidi possibly swapping Leicester City for Man United, a report from Nigeria says that the Foxes will not sell the holding midfielder who has flourished during
“Ndidi, still just 23 years old, has grown into his role as N’Golo Kante’s replacement and has been pivotal in Brendan Rodgers’ side sitting in third place in the Premier League with nine games to go. Man United, PSG and Arsenal have all been linked with a move for Ndidi but the best fit would surely be the Red Devils, both for the player and in terms of a prospective new club.
“Ndidi would be perfect to slot into Man United’s central midfield to add poise as well as power, as his interceptions and reading of the game suit Man United’s counter-attacking style. In truth, Ndidi is probably a few seasons away from a ‘big move’ but if he keeps up this form it would be tough for Leicester to keep him, which was the case with Harry Maguire last summer.”
