Manchester United reportedly held talks this summer to sign Wilfred Ndidi.
Leicester City will be demoted to the championship, and players will be able to leave them for a fee of just £9 million due to the contract’s relegation clause. According to the report, Manchester United has begun discussions with Nigeria International over personal terms and will be interesting to see if they can complete the deal.
Man United need Wilfred Ndidy
They can use quality defensive midfielders, and the 28-year-old would be an ideal acquisition. He has extensive experience in Premier League football and supports Manchester United on both ends of the pitch. He helps them close defensively by protecting the back four. It also allows creative players to operate with more freedom.
Manchester United signed Manuel Ugarte for the role, but South America still has the stage of British football. Manchester United should invest in another defensive midfielder, ideally signing an experienced Leicester City star. Signing £9 million to a player of his quality represents a massive bargain. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops.

The opportunity to move to Manchester United is also inspiring internationally in Nigeria. That would be a big step for him. He doesn’t want to compete in the championship next season, and would ideally return to the Premier League.
Manchester United is one of the largest clubs in the country, and the opportunity to participate in them can be difficult for any player to refuse. He hopes to help them fight for the trophy next season.
Manchester United have the resources to continuously acquire transactions, and it is still unclear whether official proposals will soon progress.
