Evan Ndicka’s price tag continues to rise as defender earns vice-captain title | OneFootball

Evan Ndicka is increasingly becoming a pivotal presence in Roma’s squad both and off the pitch.

The Ivorian defender is one of the few players to have featured in every single game this season, playing non-stop for the Giallorossi.

He arrived over a year ago to sit on the bench under Mourinho and in a short time he has become an irreplaceable linchpin.

His journey has been exceptional, writes Corriere dello Sport. Mourinho roughed him out, De Rossi polished him and now Juric is showing him off like a glittering jewel, among the most precious in the squad.

As a result, the twenty-five-year-old’s price tag is rising month after month, adds the newspaper.

His present value cannot be less than 30 million euros. A significant figure considering that he arrived in Trigoria as a free agent, when his contract with Eintracht Frankfurt expired.

Most recently, Ndicka was rewarded with the captain’s armband in the match against Dynamo Kyiv; an important sign for his future at the club.
