A Stellar Season in the Championship
Last season, Ndidi demonstrated his unwavering value to Leicester City, contributing four goals and five assists in their campaign to reclaim Premier League status.

“The things we don’t hope for, we’ll also try to do our best to go forward. I feel very, very excited. I feel happy to be a part of this and then I can’t wait to get started,” Ndidi remarked, reflecting the optimism surrounding his return.
Versatility on the Pitch
What sets Ndidi apart is his adaptability on the pitch. He expressed a willingness to play in various positions, stating, “For me, I’m really, really open to any position on the pitch. I just want to play football.” This flexibility indicates that Ndidi is ready to contribute to his team’s tactical setups, whether as a defensive midfielder or pushing forward into more attack-minded roles.
As Leicester prepares for their upcoming encounters, the return of a player like Ndidi will undoubtedly boost morale and deepen the squad’s strength. The Nigerian’s readiness to assist his teammates is evident in his statement:
“When you know you love what you do, it comes naturally. Scoring goals… You know, if you score a goal, you’re always happy, but if you don’t score, you have to help the team.”
