The 23-year-old signs a five-year contract with Jose Mourinho's side

Roma have announced the arrival of Ivorian defender Evan Ndicka, who has signed a five-year contract with the Europa League runners-up.

The 23-year-old impressed during his recent five-year spell with Eintracht Frankfurt, and Jose Mourinho's club was quick to agree on a deal with Ndicka and beat out Milan to secure his signature.

Speaking in the announcement, Ndicka shared his happiness and goals with Roma.

"The project that was illustrated to me, together with the history and prestige of this club, encouraged me to come to Rome, a fantastic city that loves and lives for football.

"I can't wait to take to the pitch at the Stadio Olimpico in front of my new fans and to be able to give my contribution to the achievement of our goals."

Roma general manager Tiago Pinto underlined the club's excitement at the 23-year-old Ivorian defender's arrival.

"Despite his young age, Evan has already gained important experience in one of the most prestigious leagues and with a European title achieved as a protagonist. He was a particularly sought-after player at international level and we are very happy that he has chosen to wear the Roma shirt."
