Real Madrid targets Ivorian international Evan Ndicka as defensive reinforcements take shape

Real Madrid targets Ivorian international Evan Ndicka as defensive reinforcements take shape

Real Madrid have set their sights on AS Roma’s Evan Ndicka as part of their strategy to bolster their defensive ranks ahead of the summer transfer window.

With a deal for Dean Huijsen from Bournemouth nearing completion, the Spanish giants are now exploring additional options to shore up their backline, and Ndicka has emerged as a leading candidate.

The 25-year-old Ivorian international has impressed in Serie A this season, making 49 appearances in all competitions, scoring once and delivering two assists.

According to Spanish outlet Fichajes, Real Madrid’s interest in Ndicka stems from both his consistency and physical profile.

The centre-back’s performances have been a key component in Roma’s defensive setup, with his composure, strength, and positional awareness drawing attention from top European scouts.

His contract with Roma runs until June 2028, but reports suggest the Italian club could be willing to listen to offers in the region of €30 million.

Ndicka, born in Paris and developed at AJ Auxerre, has become a regular fixture for the Ivorian national team, earning 16 caps for the Elephants.

His international experience, combined with his club consistency, has elevated his reputation across the continent.

Real Madrid view his athleticism and versatility as ideal traits to support their long-term defensive plans.

Real’s management is believed to be making strategic preparations to guard against possible squad changes, particularly in defence.

With veterans aging and some players facing uncertain futures at the Bernabéu, the club is working to ensure continuity and depth.

Ndicka’s availability at a relatively modest price could prove a shrewd investment.

While negotiations have not formally begun, Ndicka’s name is now firmly on Madrid’s radar.

His inclusion signals the club’s intent to build a defence capable of maintaining its competitive edge in both La Liga and the Champions League.

Whether Roma will entertain serious bids remains to be seen, but with Real Madrid stepping up their summer planning, the Ivorian centre-back could be at the heart of one of the window’s most intriguing moves.
