Barcelona has prioritized signing a new central defender to solidify the club's long-term project. Aware of the difficulties in a potential transfer for Alessandro Bastoni from Inter, the Catalan giants are closely monitoring the performance of Evan Ndicka from Roma.
Regarding recruitment, sporting director Deco is working tirelessly to find a new defensive leader who fits the ambitious project for both the present and future. Alessandro Bastoni remains the primary target, but Inter has no intention of easily parting with one of their defensive stalwarts.
For this very reason, according to journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, the Spanish Super Cup winners have turned their attention to Evan Ndicka. The central defender has showcased class and leadership qualities with Roma, making him a potential dark horse for the Barça squad this summer.
Considering the upcoming summer transfer window, Ndicka represents a more realistic and economically viable alternative for Hansi Flick's team. While the Giallorossi are expected to fend off any offers for their player, the defender could become an increasingly attractive option for the Catalan powerhouse.
