PSG Stand to Gain as Chelsea, Arsenal & Liverpool Chase Bundesliga’s Breakout Star | OneFootball

Chelsea, Liverpool, and Manchester United are all showing interest in Hugo Ekitiké, and PSG stand to benefit if a deal goes through.

The young striker will likely leave Eintracht Frankfurt soon, and PSG are in line for a payday thanks to a 20 percent sell-on clause.

Newcastle remain in the mix as they continue to view Ekitiké as a possible replacement for Alexander Isak. The club has been monitoring him since his days in Paris, and now, according to CaughtOffside, another Premier League side has joined the race for the 22-year-old.

Manchester United are also said to be keeping close tabs on the French forward. Football Insider reports that the club is tracking his progress in Frankfurt while weighing options for a new No. 9 ahead of the summer window.

Chelsea are reportedly battling Arsenal and Liverpool for the signing of Ekitiké, according to RMC Sport. The 22-year-old scored 22 goals in all competitions this season, attracting strong Premier League interest.

Eintracht Frankfurt are said to want between €80 million and €100 million for Ekitiké. PSG, where Ekitiké struggled before moving to Germany, are set to receive 20 percent of any future transfer fee.

Recently, GIVE ME SPORT reported that Arne Slot and the club’s owners, Fenway Sports Group, reportedly decided to explore the possibility of making a big-name signing to pursue more attacking options.

Moreover, the outlet claims that Liverpool are expected to be among many clubs attending the match at Europa-Park Stadion, with a clear focus on assessing Ekitiké, who has been involved in 33 goals across all competitions this season. However, his £84 million price tag may present a challenge.
