Injured Nigeria’s Super Eagles and Leicester City midfielder Wilfred Ndidi has been ruled out of action for 3 months.
Ndidi is already sidelined with an injury and has missed the Foxes last two games.
Leicester City manager, Enzo Maresca, confirmed that the combative midfielder will miss action for the next 3 months.
The defensive midfield player was initially selected for the Super Eagles team for the upcoming African Cup of Nations but was excused from the team due to an injury.
Ndidi has been a key figure this term for City, who currently hold a 10-point lead at the top of the second-tier standings.
The manager stated that he is awaiting a more detailed assessment of the former Genk midfielder’s injury.
”Probably for Wilf, it will be a long time,” Maresca told reporters.
“It could be three months. It looks like a muscular problem, but an important one, so we will see in the next hours but the situation for Wilf is probably the clearest one.”
However, Ndidi will be out of contract in the summer, and with this injury problem turning up, not likely a transfer target for anyone in January.
