In a pivotal turn of events for Leicester City, manager Enzo Maresca exudes sheer delight as midfield maestro Wilfred Ndidi reclaims his spot in the squad, marking a triumphant return to the field.


Ndidi's eagerly anticipated comeback unfolded amidst the Foxes' gripping 1-0 victory over Sunderland on Tuesday night, a match that underscored the significance of his presence.


The 27-year-old Nigerian dynamo, sidelined for an arduous two-month period grappling with a formidable muscle injury, finally emerged back into the fray, stepping into the shoes of Yunus Akgun in the 73rd minute.


Maresca's elation is palpable as he articulates the team's dire need for Ndidi's invaluable contributions. "I’m very happy. We need him, Wilf is so important to us so it’s good to have him back," he conveyed to Leicester City's website, his words resonating with the collective sentiment of the club's supporters.


Ndidi's absence loomed large, casting a shadow over Leicester's ambitions, notably sidelining him during the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Cote d’Ivoire.


However, his return heralds a resurgence, injecting a potent dose of optimism into the squad's pursuit of promotion to the Premier League.
