Ndidi wins Leicester City Young Player Award

The 20-year-old Nigerian joined Leicester from Genk in the January transfer window and has made a major impact at the King Power Stadium.

He has made 15 Premier League appearances and scored two goals, with the Super Eagles player particularly impressive when Craig Shakespeare took over from Claudio Ranieri.

Goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel was named the Players’ Player of the Year and the Player of the Year, while Goal of the Year went to Danny Drinkwater.

The impressive Wilfred Ndidi has scooped the Young Player of the Season award after some brilliant performances for the Foxes!

United Now With All Trophies In The World.

We are in the Champions League in the right way and for me the right way is winning the Premier League or winning the Europa League. We were not strong enough to win the Premier League but we were strong enough to win the Europa League and we are back in the Champions League. The club now has every trophy in world football. We fought hard for this since the beginning. We totally deserved the win. I am so happy to see all the players, including the boys with the crutches, with the trophy." THREE TROPHIES OUT OF FIVE THIS SEASON  "And 64 matches out of 66 possible, which is incredible. I am very happy and I thank everyone that had a contribution for that, and I’m not speaking just about the players. Many other staff. The work they did to organise everything for us, for our families, to come to this important match with a short period of time, the way people dedicate themselves to that, to try to have our heads clean and focused and everything was perfect. So I thank everyone

Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose yesterday urged the Federal Government to as a matter of urgency, upgrade facilities in the prisons across the federation. The governor made the appeal when he visited the Federal Prisons in Ado-Ekiti to examine the facilities and to also pardon some inmates. However, the governor could not ensure the release of the inmates as the Chief Judge of the state, Justice Ayodeji Daramola, advised that some due process needed to be followed before he can veto their release. Some wives of the inmates, especially those whose husbands were in prison for crimes of political violence, knelt down and appealed to governor Fayose to release them. But the governor explained to them that his hands were tied because he had to follow due process and that he would have loved to release all inmates. He said: “We would pardon some inmates but we have to follow due process. We must have the facts and figures before vetoing their release. We have come to see the fac

N’Golo Kante has won the Professional Footballers’ Association Player of the Year award for 2016-17. The Chelsea midfielder, 26, beat Eden Hazard, Harry Kane, Romelu Lukaku, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Alexis Sanchez in the vote by his fellow players. Kante was key to Leicester’s surprise Premier League win last year and could become first player to achieve the distinction of winning successive titles with different clubs if Chelsea can stay ahead of Spurs in this season’s race. Since signing Kante in July, Chelsea have gone from a mid-table finish to the top of the pile with six games to play. In his absence, Leicester have largely struggled to replicate their heroics of last season and are still not safe from relegation. France international Kante has played every minute in the league this season apart from the Boxing Day game against Bournemouth, when he was suspended, and the final 11 minutes against Tottenham on Jan. 4. Kante said: “It’s a huge honour to be chosen by the other pl
