Leicester City manager, Enzo Maresca has described Super Eagles midfielder, Wilfred Ndidi as an important player for the club.
He made this known while giving an update on the Nigerian international’s injury ahead Queens Park Ranger (QPR) on Saturday.
Maresca noted Ndidi could return to action before the international break with the midfielder making good progress in his comeback from injury.
“Wilf is still out and that is all. He has already started to do some sessions with us, but part of the session, not all,” Maresca told a press conference on Friday.

“Hopefully next week he can complete the session with us, which means he starts to be available. Hopefully we can have Wilf back because, as you know, he is an important player for us.
“That’s why I said if he can be back earlier than three months, it is much better for us.
“He is an important player. Now we are trying to find solutions to adapt players but hopefully we can have him back very soon.”
Ndidi has not played since the win at Cardiff in December after sustaining a muscle injury that required surgery. He was initially ruled out for three months, potentially taking him up to the end of March or beginning of April.
