Evan Ndicka
Evan Ndicka has made 27 appearances for Roma in 2023-24
Roma defender Evan Ndicka suffered a collapsed lung during Sunday's Serie A match
against Udinese, manager Daniele de Rossi says.
Ndicka, 24, collapsed in the 72nd minute and the game was abandoned after he was
taken off on a stretcher.
"A collapsed lung is a painful thing but luckily, if we can say that, he's not
suffering from what we feared," De Rossi said.
The Ivory Coast international spent one night under observation before being
allowed to return to Rome, with tests revealing no sign of cardiac issues.
Ndicka joined Roma on a free transfer from Eintracht Frankfurt in 2023 and has
featured on 19 occasions in Serie A.
Sunday's fixture was level at 1-1 when the match was suspended.
Roma are organising an initiative to offer free heart screenings for supporters
over the age of 45 at a local hospital prior to their next home league game against
Bologna on 22 April.
