What do we think?
Ndidi’s importance to Leicester’s side may have been highlighted when he missed five of the Foxes’ last eight Premier League fixtures due to knee issues. Leicester City failed to win each of the five games that Ndidi was recently absent for, losing three of them.
It may be fair to say that Ndidi is a key part of the Foxes’ squad, considering his impressive performances for Leicester this season, in addition to his side’s recent struggles when he has been absent from the team.
