Liverpool Nears Record £82M Ekitike Deal, Beats Newcastle
Liverpool have reached a full agreement with Eintracht Frankfurt to sign French striker Hugo Ekitike in a deal potentially worth up to £82 million, including add-ons, on a six-year contract until 2031. Ekitike, who scored 22 goals and provided 12 assists in 48 games last season, has been a top target for Liverpool, who outbid Newcastle United, rejecting their earlier £70 million offer. The transfer marks Liverpool's third signing from the Bundesliga this summer, following Jeremie Frimpong and Florian Wirtz, with new manager Arne Slot investing heavily to strengthen the squad. Frankfurt have excluded Ekitike from their preseason tour and friendlies, signaling his imminent departure, and the forward is expected to complete his Liverpool medical soon. His arrival could impact Darwin Nunez's future at Anfield, as the Uruguayan has struggled to impress under Slot. The move also follows Liverpool's pivot away from Newcastle striker Alexander Isak, whose sale remains uncertain amid interest from Saudi Pro League clubs.
