The Nigeria star receives effusive praise from pundits, fans and neutrals, but this has never resulted in any concrete interest in the Super Eagle
The Wilfred Ndidi paradox has flown beneath the radar and is getting little or no mention: the Leicester City man is praised to high heaven yearly but receives minimal interest from the top sides.
Perhaps the supposed belief is driven by the average supporter’s thirst for transfer rumours during the window to give the impression that the club they’re invested in is making moves for the right players.
As right players go, Ndidi by and large fits that bill, given the West African’s development into one of Europe’s leading defensive midfielders.
