'He's Been The One Screening The Back Line' - Ex-Liverpool Star Reveals Ndidi Is Vital To Leicester City
Published: March 09, 2020Former Liverpool midfielder Don Hutchison believes a fit Wilfred Ndidi is vital for Leicester City's European hopes as the Foxes face Aston Villa Monday night at the King Power Stadium.
Ndidi has not started Leicester's last seven Premier League games due to a knee injury but could be back for the visit of the Villains.
The Nigerian who has named in Gernot Rohr's team for the 2019 AFCON qualifiers against Sierra Leone late March has played in 22 of Leicester's league games starting 19 of them. He has scored two league goals and been yellow carded thrice.
Hutchison spoke on Premier League Productions' Preview Show highlighting the matches played over the weekend plus Monday nights.
"If they (Leicester City) get Wilfred Ndidi back in the team, he's been the one screening the back line, I think Leicester will be just fine, as they look poised for Champions League spot," Hutchinson said on Monday as monitored by allnigeriasoccer.com.
"They have had certain players missing a lot of matches like Jamie Vardy and (Wilfred) Ndidi. I believe they will have enough for Aston Villa," Hutchinson stated.
Leicester City are currently third in the Premier League with 50 points.
