In a recent report, Gazzetta dello Sport (via Sport Witness<\/a>) stated that Manchester United are locked in a three-way battle for Roma defender Evan N\u2019Dicka. It has been stated that the Red Devils would have to compete with Arsenal<\/a> and Newcastle United in the race to land the Ivory Coast talent this summer.<\/p>\n

N\u2019Dicka\u2019s Impressive Rise In Italian Football<\/strong><\/h3>\n

N\u2019Dicka put in a series of impressive displays for the Italian club on the defensive end of the field in the previous campaign. The 25-year-old participated in 54 matches for Roma last season, netting one goal and grabbing two assists in multiple competitions.<\/p>\n

The Ivory Coast international was a rock at the back and deserves credit for making 32 tackles, 46 blocks and 33 interceptions in Serie A<\/a> football. He was even accurate when distributing possession from inside his half, as evidenced by his pass completion rate of 92.1% in league football (stats via fbref.com<\/a>).<\/p>\n

N\u2019Dicka is under contract at the Italian club until the summer of 2028. Thus, Man United would have to make a big offer if they are serious about recruiting him this off-season.<\/p>\n

Should Manchester United Boss Ruben Amorim Move In For N\u2019Dicka?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

N\u2019Dicka is a good tackler of the ball and can time his challenges well to earn possession back for his team inside his half. He doesn\u2019t mind putting his foot through the ball when needed and excels at playing his way out from the back.<\/p>\n

Standing at 1.92m, N\u2019Dicka is a strong presence in the air as well. However, he might need some time to adapt to the high intensity of the Premier League<\/a> if Man United manage to get him on board this summer.<\/p>\n

We can expect N\u2019Dicka to add more bite and steel to Man United boss Ruben Amorim\u2019s defence. He might even help the Mancunian club challenge across all fronts in the coming seasons.<\/p>\n

At 25, N\u2019Dicka has his peak years ahead of him which makes him a decent choice for the Red Devils to pursue in this transfer period. However, Amorim would have to give him some time to adjust to life in English football. With all things considered, the pros outweigh the cons of signing a centre-back of N\u2019Dicka\u2019s quality, so Man United<\/a> should focus on moving in for him soon.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
