Both Liverpool and Arsenal have been scouting Eintracht Frankfurt defender Evan N’Dicka.
The 20 year is a left-footed central defender, who is versatile to play left-back as well. Although of Cameroonian descent, he has born in France, and has been capped by them at every age level up to under-21 level.
N’Dicka began his professional career with Ligue 1 side Auxerre before making the switch to Frankfurt for £5 million in the summer of 2018. He has since gone on to make 61 appearances for them and, his first season with Eintracht, was nominated for Rookie of the Year.
His form has attracted the attention of a number of European clubs, with Valencia, Sevilla, and both Milan clubs, Inter and AC monitoring his progress, but it is the two Premier League clubs, especially Liverpool, who are leading the hunt for him.
They are in the market for a replacement for Croatian defender Dejan Lovren, who is widely tipped to leave Anfield this summer.
