My Take
Evan Ndicka is a defender whose path I find genuinely interesting. Born in the 20th arrondissement of Paris, he came up through Auxerre's academy and debuted in the senior side at just seventeen, which tells you the club trusted him early. At 192 centimeters he has the frame you want in a centre-back, and his move to Roma in Serie A is a real test of that pedigree. The detail I keep coming back to is that, though French-born, he chose to represent Ivory Coast internationally. That decision says something about identity and roots that goes well beyond football tactics.
