Wilfred Ndidi

[Lcfc-1992]

One year left on his contract. Hopefully still be able to get 5-10 million and another big earner off the wage bill

[moore_94]

If they do it like they have done recently with Anguissa and Ndombele I wouldn't be surprised if they try for a loan

 

Although they could get a massive wedge for Osimhen this summer so hopefully we can get some pennies out of ADL

 

Wages won't be an issue or leave us with anything to cover

[MPH]

Getting 15m and him going to Napoli gives everyone a chance to save face..

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

If in 2019 you'd have told me I'd be half pleased to see the back of Wilf I'd have laughed in your chops.

 

I like the bloke but he's probably had the biggest drop off of any player we've ever had. There's barely a glimpse of what he was anymore and he hasn't managed 30+ league games for a few seasons now.

[STUHILL]

Never thought I would be OK with him going for such a low fee, but he just isn't the player he once was, and there have been zero signs of returning to that level. 

Such a shame and still unexplainable why he is half the player he once was, but we can't afford another season of his lacklustre performances and mistakes that actually cost us games. Get as much as possible for him, and put that and whatever else we get in, towards rebuilding our entire midfield.

Shows how shite Serie A is nowadays that the Champions would want a player like him.

Maybe not ….could it be he is a defensive midfielder who topped the league for tackles and interceptions until someone tried to convert him into Iniesta or Xavi which clearly he isn’t …I think BR destroyed him but actually in recent weeks since Smith got hold of him he looked a bit more like the Wilf we know……don’t be surprised if many of our players get good clubs as it will just show what we all know BR was a fraud!

[Poznan34]

Was excellent for a good few years then dropped off about covid time. We probably could have got £50m for him at one stage. 

 

Wonder how old he actually is

[LCFCJohn]

Really hope he moves on. Likeable guy and had his time but we need to move on from him and vice versa. I think he’ll come alive again elsewhere though.

[Guest Mee-9]

Was a colossus seasons ago. A shadow of his former self this season. 

 

But would love to see him go on to do something in Europe. He's a decent chap. I remember watching an interview with him a few years ago, how he was doing a business degree at DMU alongside playing. 

[Mark_w]

Good for him, shame but it's time for him to move on and us to find an alternative.

[Pliskin]

We can push for a bit more than £15m I reckon. One thing Whelan is very good at is driving deals.

It's going to really seal it as the most disgraceful relegation of all time when you see the moves this lot get off the back of it.

To Italy with a year left and woeful for more than a season. The players with a year left have to be sold 

£10m I would think 

[Gamble92]

The only thing that's made me feel okay this weekend is all the stories about players like Ndidi leaving for any sort of money.

 

Genuinely how has anyone who's watched this absolute clown "play" football for the past 2 years decided to pick him? 

[SB87_LCFC]

Too many injuries in quick succession and lack of confidence for whatever reason (toxicity in the camp im assuming) sadly a player who has struggled to rediscover his form we all loved him for. 
 

Sad to read so many negative comments about a player who at one time was held in such high regard and courted by Real Madrid, but he just hasn’t delivered when he would be one of the players we needed most!

 

no ill feeling on my part, if we can get what we paid I think we’ve done well

Our fans.

[Stuntman_Mike]

That'd be a good move all round. 

 

I hope most of our players end up abroad.

[LVFox]

Anything over 5 million and let's get him out the door. Has been amazing for us, sad that it's ended in such a drop off.

[Clever Fox]

Unless we get really go money for him I wouldn't sell.

 

I'm sure his problem is he has too much going on in his life right now.

 

He will recover his form as his life settles down.

[pkonline]

To go from a £60-70million 2-3 seasons ago, to very little now, is devastating. I can't recall a previous Leicester player becoming so awful within such a time frame. It's a shame, because he has both the athletic and mental attributes to be one of the very best, and is still at the age where you expect more. Perhaps it's something off the field that we don't know about, or perhaps he just needs a new challenge. I remember seeing something about him a few years back, he was enjoying life in Leics, studying too, got on well with Kelechi, and was a popular player. He's now far more into social media and various promotional stuff.

[Finn Claw II]

With one year left on his contract, we have to extract as much value as we can.  £15m would be good business (is the fee mentioned anywhere).

[Mapperleyfox]

He’s been absolutely dog dirt for 2 seasons. Offered nothing, as he’s even stopped winning the ball back. Hopefully we can get him off the wage bill and fool someone into paying a feasible fee. 

[sacreblueits442]

...good luck to him, he seemed in the last couple of games to be playing a lot better and getting back to his old self!!!

Will not be surprised if he turns this all around.

[foxfanazer]

At one stage he was one of my favourite players but that was a very long time ago. Had some weird space jam ability loss
