Super Eagles stars Wilfred Ndidi and Calvin Bassey face a looming suspension risk in the Premier League due to accumulated yellow cards. Both players have received four bookings each this season, leaving them just one caution away from a mandatory one-match ban.
Under Premier League rules, a player who accumulates five yellow cards must serve a one-match suspension. With their current tally, Ndidi and Bassey are walking a fine line as the season progresses.
Ndidi’s club, Leicester City, prepares to host West Ham United at King Power Stadium today, marking new manager Ruud van Nistelrooy’s debut in charge of the Foxes. Meanwhile, Calvin Bassey’s team, Fulham, will take on Brighton & Hove Albion at Craven Cottage this Thursday.
This critical phase of the season could see both players playing cautiously to avoid further disciplinary actions, potentially impacting their teams’ performance. Leicester City and Fulham will need their Super Eagles stars at full strength as they navigate this challenging period.
