Liverpool Make Major Decision on £84M-Rated Manchester United Target With PSG Sell-on Clause | OneFootball

Liverpool and Manchester United are among the clubs interested in Hugo Ekitiké, and PSG are set to benefit from his potential move.

All indications suggest the young striker will leave Eintracht Frankfurt soon, and the Parisians are set to earn a cut from the transfer thanks to a 20 percent sell-on clause.

Newcastle are still eyeing Ekitiké as a potential replacement for Alexander Isak. They’ve been tracking him since his time in Paris, and now, according to CaughtOffside, another Premier League club has entered the race for the 22-year-old.

Manchester United are also reportedly keen on the Frenchman. Football Insider states that the club has been keeping an eye on Ekitiké’s performances in Frankfurt while looking for a new No. 9 ahead of the summer.

GIVE ME SPORT reported on Wednesday that Liverpool are planning to send scouts to watch Ekitiké this weekend as they continue to evaluate whether to offer him an escape route from Eintracht Frankfurt.

This comes after Arne Slot and the club’s owners, Fenway Sports Group, reportedly decided to explore the possibility of making a big-name signing in their pursuit of more attacking options.

Moreover, the report 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.
