AC Milan remain in pursuit of a new centre-back and they have got Evan Ndicka of Eintracht Frankfurt back in their sights, a report claims.
According to Sky (via MilanLive), the Rossoneri management consider Japhet Tanganga of Tottenham to be an option to reinforce the rearguard after Alessio Romagnoli’s departure on a free transfer, but a name has resurfaced.
Ndicka may be a bit more difficult to sign than Tanganga given that the latter could arrive on loan, but nevertheless the 22-year-old Eintracht man has a contract which expires in June 2023 meaning he could leave for a fee below the €32m market valuation that Transfermarkt have on their website.
As a left-sided centre-back who is physically strong and good in the air at 192cm tall, Ndicka can also be used as a left-back in case of need, which is the kind of flexibility that Stefano Pioli is known to like.
