Nigerian outlet The New Telegraph claim
the Lagos-born Nigerian star is a top
target for Jurgen Klopp and the Reds are
prepared to \million or £54.3million for
the enforcer.
The 21-year-old has been impressive
after replacing Ngolo Kante at Leicester
and his tough tackling has apparently
caught the eye of Klopp.
Ndidi, who arrived at Leicester from Genk
in January 2017 for £15million is under
contract until 2022, has completed the
most tackles per 90 minutes in the top
flight than any other player.
Former Nigerian international Etim Esin
believes a move to Anfield could happen.
“I can’t remember the last time we had a
Nigerian in Liverpool apart from Victor
Moses’ brief stint there,” Esin said. “This is
going to be a fantastic move for him and
I think his transfer fee is likely going to
go up because it could happen shortly
after the World Cup.”
