Leicester City manager Ruud van Nistelrooy has made it clear that the club will not entertain any bids for Wilfred Ndidi this month, despite interest from AS Monaco and Atletico Madrid.
Ndidi has been absent for the past month with an injury but as he returns to full fitness, the Leicester boss insists there are no plans to sell.
Speaking to BBC, Van Nistelrooy emphasized Ndidi’s importance to the team, stating, “No, of course not,” when asked if Ndidi could leave.
“Wilfred is a key player and person in the squad and club, and I’m glad he is nearly there to help the team again.”
Van Nistelrooy highlighted the impact of Ndidi’s absence, saying,
“We know how much we’ve missed him and we know we need him. Wilf is key in the coming months, a key part of this team that can get us out of this situation.”
Ndidi, who signed a new three-year contract with Leicester City last summer, has registered three assists in 15 league appearances for the Foxes this season.
