Wilfred Ndidi says he is looking forward to working with new Leicester City manager Steve Cooper.
Ndidi penned a new three-year contract with the Foxes this week.
The Nigeria international was earlier expected to leave the King Power Stadium following the expiration of his contract.
Ndidi revealed Cooper played a key role in his decision to remain at Leicester City.
“I’ve had a chance to speak with [Cooper]. I spoke to him during the holidays when he came in,” Ndidi told the club’s official website.
“He had some good ideas to share with me, so it was really, really, really amazing and I’m looking forward to working with him. He’s a great guy, he’s funny. I look forward to working with him, it’s very exciting.” READ ALSO:
