Wilfred Ndidi News: Shines in playmaking role

Ndidi recorded five assists, 85 tackles, 17 chances created and 74 clearances in 28 starts during the Premier League season.

Ndidi is known for being a defensive-minded presence in midfield, but he thrived as a playmaker for a struggling Leicester side in 2024/25 and matched the career-high five assists he posted in the 2023/24 Championship season despite logging four fewer appearances. Ndidi should generate tons of interest to remain in the Premier League for the 2025/26 season, but until a deal in agreed with another team, the Nigeria international figures to be a key piece in midfield for the Foxes in their return to the Championship.
