English Premier League giants, Manchester United, have identified Leicester City midfielder Wilfred Ndidi as their top target ahead of the January transfer.

According to Fichajes, the Red Devils are looking to bring the Nigeria international to Old Trafford.

Ndidi has been in top form for Brendan Rodgers side all season and is seen as the man who can solve Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s defensive midfield problems.

A January move for the former Genk player appears to be on the cards following his outstanding performances for the Foxes.

Now reports suggest Solskjaer will be after the Nigerian in the January transfer window as he plans to reinforce the squad in a more thorough way.

“Manchester United already know who they will search for in the next transfer market: Wilfred Ndidi.

 “The Leicester City midfielder is the clear target to reinforce the pivot position of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team. One that has given him headaches for several seasons now.”

The Foxes are not in a hurry to dispense with their player as he has a contract till June 2024, though with the right amount, Ndidi may just be on his way to Old Trafford.
