Liverpool gets a boost as Chelsea is unsure about Ekitike

Liverpool Football Club seems to be trying to sign Hugo Ekitike, a 22-year-old forward from Eintracht Frankfurt. This interest is part of their plan to strengthen their attacking lineup, especially with possible exits like Jota, Chiesa, and Nunez.

Hugo Ekitike has become one of the exciting strikers in the Bundesliga, especially after his great 2024/25 season with Eintracht Frankfurt, where he netted 22 goals and made 12 assists in 48 games across all competitions. His contract with Frankfurt lasts until the summer of 2029, and the club is said to be asking for a transfer fee of €100 million, which shows his market value and potential.

🚨 Liverpool have been given a boost in their pursuit of Hugo Ekitiké because of Chelsea’s apparent hesitancy in negotiations.

Eintracht Frankfurt are still demanding €100M.
