Leicester City midfielder, Wilfred Ndidi has been linked with a move away from the club during the summer transfer window, and he hopes to join Manchester United this summer.
His friend and former Nigerian International, Julius Aghahowa has confirmed that the player has interest from Everton and Saudi Arabian clubs. However, he wants to join a big club like Manchester United.
He said (h/t Africa Foot): “While Everton and Al Ahly are clearly interested, Ndidi hopes to join Manchester United. He wants to take a step up by signing for a big club like Manchester United. This would be an excellent move for someone I consider one of the best African midfielders of recent years. He’s powerful, capable of pressing, winning back balls, and opening up the game with his long diagonal runs.”
Manchester United needs a quality defensive midfielder, and the 28-year-old could be an excellent addition. He will help them win the ball back, and he will also protect the back four.
The 28-year-old will not only help them dominate midfield contests, but his arrival will also allow the creative players to operate with more freedom. He has extensive experience in Premier League football, and he could settle in quickly. He is too good for the Championship, and he will not want to play in the second division of English football next season.
