Wilfred Ndidi Makes Debut For Leicester City, New Everton Signing Lookman Cup-Tied

Nigeria international Wilfred Ndidi will make his competitive debut for Leicester City when they take on Everton in the FA Cup at Goodison Park on Saturday afternoon.

After only two training sessions with the Foxes, the defensive midfielder did enough to impress manager Claudio Ranieri, who has named him in the starting eleven.

The 20-year-old starts in a midfield three alongside Danny Drinkwater and Nampalys Mendy.

As for Everton, English-born Nigerian midfielder Ross Barkley starts but new signing Ademola Lookman is cup-tied and will not feature.

Ndidi has penned a five-and-a-half-year contract with the Premier League champs and will play with the number 25 kit.
