Arsenal chose not to sign another big-money midfielder over the summer, but some would seemingly love Wilfred Ndidi to join.

The Gunners splashed out for Thomas Partey in 2020, whilst Granit Xhaka stayed put despite links to Roma.

Youngster Albert Sambi Lokonga came in from Anderlecht and has shown promise, with Edu resisting temptation to make another big signing there.

Some do ultimately think that somebody better than Xhaka should be alongside Partey, but that may only happen in the distant future now.

Still, that hasn’t stopped one Arsenal fan from trying to tempt Wilfred Ndidi into joining the Gunners.

A video has surfaced on Twitter of an Arsenal attempting to convince Ndidi to sign.

The Nigerian star has become one of the Premier League’s top holding midfield players during his time with Leicester City.

Ndidi allegedly suggested that Arsenal don’t need him because they have Partey.

When told that Partey and Ndidi could play together, Ndidi allegedly said that they could be like Michael Essien and Jon Obi Mikel at Chelsea.

Is Ndidi to Arsenal realistic any time soon? Probably not.

The 24-year-old is contracted to Leicester until 2024 and the Foxes are under no pressure to sell.

They would absolutely demand north of £50million for Ndidi, and it’s hard to see Arsenal forking out that cash.
