Liverpool and Chelsea Compete for Frankfurt Striker Hugo Ekitike

Liverpool have reportedly entered serious talks with Eintracht Frankfurt regarding the possible signing of Hugo Ekitike, according to Sky Germany.

The 22-year-old French striker has emerged as a top target for both Liverpool and Chelsea in the current summer transfer window.

Liverpool’s pursuit of Ekitike could intensify due to possible squad changes, with players like Darwin Núñez, Diogo Jota, and even Federico Chiesa reportedly linked with exits.

The Reds are looking to reinforce their attacking depth with a young, versatile forward — and Ekitike fits that profile.

Chelsea yet to make an official bid

Meanwhile, Chelsea are also interested but have not submitted a formal offer to Frankfurt.

A move to Stamford Bridge is still on the table, but negotiations remain in early stages.
