Wilfred Ndidi has emphatically stated his commitment to Leicester City in denying a report linking him to Manchester United.

United is on the market for a defensive midfielder.

"Please be informed this information is not true, I'm 200% with Leicester and i dont know this person called Hakeem bello," wrote Ndidi on Twitter.

"We did a lot of homework on him and I think we were one of the first clubs, if not the first, to show an interest in him," Craig Shakespeare said. "I think he, and his family and agent, remembered that so we were in the driving seat. When other clubs came in for him he remembered the way we went about it first. He had other options.

"From what you're seeing so far, we've got a good player on our hands."
