Since joining Leicester City during the Winter transfer window of 2017, Ndidi has scored four goals, two of those from outside the box.
While praising the midfielder for his consistency, Leicester City manager Puel has urged him to shoot more.
The 21-year-old is yet to score in the Premier League this season.
“Ndidi is the most consistent player but he’s not consistent in his shooting,” Puel stated during his pre-match conference ahead of Saturday, March 3 home match against Bournemouth.
“He’s a valuable player for us, We don’t have a lot of players with the same attributes. He can recover a lot of ball, he’s strong in the duels and he can give a good start in our play.
“He is a different player from last season.”
Critical acclaim
The Nigeria international has been critically praised this season for his consistent performance for Leicester City.
