Newcastle United are continuing to run the rule over French defender Evan Ndicka ahead of the summer transfer window.
Reports in Germany have linked the Magpies with Ndicka and sources close to Ndicka's representatives have stated there is interest from United in the French Under-21 international centre-back. Newcastle are looking to strengthen in all areas this summer but the interest in Ndicka is particularly intriguing for supporters.
Indeed, with Fabian Schar hinting he wants to stay at Newcastle and the £13million signing of Dan Burn in the summer the heart of the defence seems settled at the moment with even skipper Jamaal Lascelles not guaranteed a start right now. Ndicka would offer further solidity to the defensive rearguard and he can also play left-back.
