Liverpool move for Eintracht Frankfurt defender Evan Ndicka in summer

Ndicka has been in impressive form for Frankfurt this season.

Liverpool are planning to boost their squad ahead of the new season and they are now monitoring Eintracht Frankfurt defender Evan Ndicka, CBS reporter Ben Jacobs has told GiveMeSport.

The 23-year-old will see his contract expiring in six months at Deutsche Bank Park and is not expected to sign the extension.

Fabrizio Romano recently denied claims that Ndicka had already agreed terms with Barcelona.

“Despite what others may have claimed, I’m told nothing has been decided yet for Evan Ndicka,” Romano said.

“Barcelona are among five or six top clubs informed on his situation but I have nothing confirmed on an agreement at this stage.

“As I’ve said previously, there’s a good chance he’ll move on a free transfer this summer, but where to has not yet been decided.”

According to Football Transfers, though, RB Leipzig defender Josko Gvardiol heads up Liverpool’s four-player shortlist as they search for a new center-back.

In an interview with GMS, he said: “At the opposite extreme, you’ve got a player, for example, like Evan Ndicka, who’s a free transfer.

“And that’s exactly the kind of player that Liverpool love because they know there’s value. They appreciate the talent there, so that’s one to watch as well.”

Ndicka has been in impressive form for Frankfurt this season despite the continued speculation over his future.
