Leicester City star James Maddison has crowned Wilfred Ndidi the best midfielder in the Premier League who has just been underrated.
Maddison, a midfielder himself, said the Nigeria star is the best tackler and ball winner.
“I think he’s the best in the Premier League at tackling and winning the ball back, bar none,” Maddison saluted.
“I know (N’Golo) Kante is a brilliant player and there are players like that in the league, but actually winning the ball back and taking the ball off the opposition, I don’t think there is anyone better than Wilfred.
“Sometimes you get a player like that and what he does doesn’t get on the back page of the papers, doesn’t get talked about on Match of the Day. We as team-mates and players who play with him realise what a top player he is.
“He’s fantastic at what he does and he lets players like me and Youri Tielemans do our thing higher up the pitch because we know we’ve got that solidity behind us.”
