Top English clubs Newcastle, Manchester United, and Arsenal compete to sign AS Roma defender Evan Ndicka for £30m.

Newcastle United, Manchester United, and Arsenal are in a bidding war for AS Roma's central defender Evan Ndicka, valued at around €35m (£30m). Ndicka, who played every minute of Roma's Serie A matches last season, is sought after for his defensive skills. Newcastle aims to secure a long-term defensive partner, while Manchester United and Arsenal look to bolster their defense for the upcoming season. Financial Fair Play rules may push Roma to accept offers closer to their £30m asking price.
