Leicester City had agreed to sign the defensive midfielder in the winter transfer market after he was recommended to the club by a Racing Genk scout, who was recently poached by Manchester United coach Jose Mourinho to handle his scouting duties.
This is the best kept secret at Old Trafford weeks leading up to the opening of the January transfer window, Mourinho is seeking approval from the Board to sign Wilfred Ndidi and is confident the scout’s relationship with Genk will swing the deal.

Racing Genk’s current position on the imminent transfer of Wilfred Ndidi to the Premier League is that he will be sold to the highest bidder.
