Liverpool fans want to see Wilfred Ndidi arrive at Anfield this summer.
Liverpool may have already snapped up one midfielder for next season, but that hasn’t stopped fans from hoping for another arrival in the middle of the park.
The Reds tied up a deal for RB Leipzig’s Naby Keita last summer, with the Guinean international set to arrive at Anfield this summer, and fans are certainly excited about his arrival.
Whilst many were dazzled by Keita’s display for Leipzig against Bayern Munich this weekend, others turned their attentions to who could join him on Merseyside next season.
Fans are keen to see a powerful holding midfielder arrive to take Jordan Henderson’s place at the base of the Liverpool midfield, and many believe they saw the ideal target on Sunday.
Leicester City took on Chelsea in the FA Cup quarter-finals on Sunday, losing 2-1 in extra time to a Pedro winner, with Foxes midfielder Wilfred Ndidi starring throughout.
The Nigerian, 21, has been excelling in the Leicester midfield ever since his January 2017 move from Genk, and some of the Premier League’s biggest clubs are surely taking a look.
Liverpool fans took to Twitter over the last 24 hours to suggest that Ndidi is exactly what the Reds need in midfield right now, filling the void left by Lucas Leiva as a holding midfielder.
Others believe Ndidi and Keita would form a superb partnership, and believe he should be a prime midfield target this summer as the club prepare for life without contract rebel Emre Can.
