Nigeria midfielder Wilfred Ndidi has emerged as a summer transfer target for English Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur.

According to Sport Witness, Spurs have taken information on Ndidi and believe that the Leicester City star is an affordable target.

The 23-year-old starred for the Foxes in recent campaigns and would likely prove a tricky target to attain for Jose Mourinho’s side.

Ndidi has also been linked with Manchester United and Arsenal.

The talented midfielder linked up with Leicester City from Belgian club KRC Genk in January 2017.

He has featured in 120 league games and scored six times.

A 20 years old player isn't too old in 2020 to decide which country he's going to play for please, who's advising this guy, the earlier the better.
Nah Saka is still a young lad (18 years old) and whatever advice his parents have for him is the best for him, I think his parents are the only reason why he has not come out and declared for England. They are probably weighing the best option for him

I can't wrap my head why we dey follow English people take bother why or not Grealish should have been called up. Like, what's our own really?
There's no point in making an issue out of it, both Saka and Grealish are two players we expected to see in Southgate's squad even though we only care about saka we know that both players had a good season.

Bukola Saka’s parents ask for time as NFF finally contacts player

Super Eagles Head Coach Gernot Rohr has contacted Arsenal’s rave of the moment Bukayo Saka to play for Nigeria.

The Eagles’ Chief Scout cum Rohr’s Personal Assistant Tunde Adelakun revealed this to newsmen from his base in England.

“The boy (Bukayo Saka) wants to concentrate on his club career. He is still very young and his parents and advisers believe it is too premature for him to be faced with major decisions on International football. He is only 18 years old.

“We have reached him. I have made the approach and that is what I have been told. We cannot exert pressure on a young 18-year-old to decide on such major issues unless it comes from him”, Adelakun explained to newsmen from his base in England yesterday.



There has been rave reviews about the performance of the 18-year-old who surprised Arsenal fans with his sublime football skills, composure and absolute confidence during the just-concluded season.

This sparked a huge debate regarding his international future at the senior level since he is eligible to play for his adopted country England and his fatherland Nigeria since his parents are Nigerians.

Saka was quoted by Sky Sports last month, “It’s a tough choice. I’m happy to have represented England at the youth level but I’m also proud of my Nigerian heritage from my parents.

"We haven’t been picked by any team so it’s about staying humble and when the time comes we’ll make the decision”, Saka told Sky Sport in an interview in July this year.

Jack Grealish in the Premier League:
• 36 Games

• 8 Goals

• 6 Assists

• 9 MOTM

Kalvin Phillips in the Premier League:
• 0 Games

• 0 Goals

• 0 Assists

• 0 MOTM

Last year Southgate said that Jack Grealish must gain more 'Premier League experience' to earn a call-up

Even if we decide to hand Saka a call up, he would still need a switch..
There's still time for England to hand him a call up in October...
A lot could happen before October..
Sudan already released a 29 man list that will be revised before their match against Ghana, If only Rohr will do the same

Jack Grealish last season

184 shot-creating actions [1st]

167 fouls suffered [1st]

91 chances created [1st]

79 passes into the box [2nd]

73 successful take-ons [3rd]

6 assists [4th]

But not good enough

Apparently,a lot of English fans aren't happy with the squad list..

Saka, Grealish and Coady being dropped didn't go down well with them...
And Maguire being picked after what happened in Greece..

Sterling was on dropped from England squad afger getting into a fight with Gomez in the team training camp last year, but Maguire that got into a fight in a foreign country was still picked..

Interesting...
Na sentiments go kill these English coaches last last..
It's surprising honestly
Southgate surely knows that Nigeria is hot on Saka's trail and one would have expected him to cap saka even if it was for a 3min cap like Tomori

I will like to believe Saka had a hand in his absence from the list

Jack Grealish is a better play maker than all the midfielders on that list.
No argument at all, it's a no-brainer that mount an English player that cannot be called up by any other country is there
