After Wednesday’s defeat to Arsenal, Brendan Rodgers revealed that Wilfred Ndidi could be lost between six and 12 weeks due to an injury caused by a kidnapper.
Leicester’s official quoted him as saying, “We’re hoping to know more about it, but it may be six to 12 weeks. “
“He’s a kidnapper who manages to get rid of the bone. “
The Nigerian climbed the opposite factor to Burnley on Sunday, and it will be a heavy blow to the Foxes as he replaced the central.
The former Genk player is, of course, a midfielder, so the loss of a player from that branch can have an effect on Southampton’s interest in another Leicester midfielder, Hamza Choudhury.
The Telegraph says Ralph Hasenhuttl is willing to instruct Englishman to update Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.
Earlier in that window, the Dane, who once led the Saints, went to Tottenham. It is alarming that Southampton also discharged Harrison Reed and Mario Lemina, so their midfield branch is weak.
However, they may now have to divert their attention from Choudhury, who earns 7500 euros a week at King Power Stadium.
Rodgers probably wouldn’t need to let the 22-year-old through so soon after his star midfielder was injured.
In addition, Choudhury played the 90th minute of Leicester’s 2-0 loss to Arsenal on Wednesday, so he is obviously still on Rodgers’ plans to some extent.
Despite liverpool’s ex-boss’s revelation, Southampton would possibly have to push his shopping cart before the five-October deadline.
