90 min reported two weeks ago that the Eintracht Frankfurt star is an option that ‘appeals hugely’ to the Lilywhites.
The report added that Spurs could face competition from Barcelona for the Frankfurt star, who was said to be open to a move to Camp Nou.
The Mirror now have named Spurs and Arsenal as contenders for Ndicka’s signature but they add that the two North London clubs are now set to be challenged by Liverpool for the centre-back’s services.

However, Liverpool are said to be aware that Ndicka would want regular first-team football, which the Reds might not be able to guarantee since they have the likes of Ibrahima Konate and Virgil van Dijk among their ranks.
