The summer transfer window saw an attempt from a Saudi club, likely Al-Nassr, to sign Ivorian defender Ivan Ndicka, a cornerstone of AS Roma's backline. However, this move was met with a firm rejection.

Roma turn down €25 million bid for Ivan Ndicka

Italian journalist Nicolò Schira revealed that a €25 million offer was submitted to Roma's management for Ndicka, but the club decided not to accept it, choosing instead to keep the player for at least another season.Furthermore, Ivan himself appears uninterested in a move to the Saudi Pro League at this time. Should he leave AS Roma, he would reportedly prefer a move to the English Premier League.

The Italian transfer expert explained: "Roma consider Ndicka a key part of their defense and would only consider offers in the region of €40 million."Last season, Ndicka delivered a remarkable performance, playing every minute of all 38 Serie A matches—a feat not achieved since 2004—without being substituted or missing a single game. He also provided two assists.It's worth recalling that the Ivorian international joined AS Roma in the summer of 2023 from Eintracht Frankfurt on a contract running until mid-2028.
