La Liga
Real Madrid is reportedly considering strengthening its defense with Evan Ndicka, who currently plays for AS Roma. This interest arises amid an urgent need for coverage in the backline, given Eder Militao's extended absence due to injury and David Alaba's physical issues, as reported by journalist Abdellah Boulma.
The 25-year-old Ivorian has become an attractive target for the Merengues ahead of next year's transfer market.
Ndicka, an international for Ivory Coast, has shown consistent performance throughout his career, particularly shining during his time at Eintracht Frankfurt. After five years in the Bundesliga, the center-back joined AS Roma in 2023 as a free agent and has established himself in Serie A with steady performances and notable adaptation to the Italian team. His experience and solid playing style in the defensive line have made him appealing to several top European clubs, including Real Madrid, who see him as a long-term reinforcement option.
Madrid Needs to Strengthen Its Defense
Real Madrid's need for a reliable defender is evident, especially in a season where defensive absences have left Antonio Rüdiger almost alone at the back. Ndicka could fill that gap and provide defensive stability, something that coach Carlo Ancelotti considers vital to maintain the team's competitive performance in La Liga and the Champions League.
While French journalist Abdellah Boulma has not confirmed an immediate move by Real Madrid, the possibility of the Madrid club betting on Ndicka could depend on the conditions set by Roma, who are facing a tough time in Serie A and may not be willing to part ways with the player in January.
