Nigeria’s Super Eagles midfielder, Wilfred Ndidi is optimistic Leicester City can finish in the Premier League top six this season.
Brendan Rodgers’ men narrowly missed out on Europa League ticket last term, after ending behind Wolverhampton Wanderers and Everton in ninth place.
The former Genk midfielder played a key role in his side’s performances, helping the Foxes keep nine clean sheets in 38 league games.
Ndidi has now set a target for the King Power Stadium outfit, as he hopes his side can surpass their last season’s performances.
“Top six? I would say top three [is possible] but we have to get the points out of the games before we can place ourselves at the top.” Ndidi said on Sky Sports.
The Nigeria international is currently studying business and management at the De Montfort University (DMU) as he aims to broaden his academic knowledge.
The midfielder, who has made three appearances for the King Power Stadium outfit this term, will hope to help his side outwit Manchester United on September 14.
