Man Utd Set to Boost PSG’s Coffers With Pursuit of €80M-Rated Newcastle Target This Summer | OneFootball

Paris Saint-Germain will be closely watching when Eintracht Frankfurt sells Hugo Ekitike, as the club stands to receive a percentage of the transfer fee.

CaughtOffside previously reported, citing sources, that Newcastle is considering Ekitike as a potential replacement for Alexander Isak. The club had shown interest in the forward during his time at Paris Saint-Germain.

PSG holds a 20 percent sell-on clause in any future deal, meaning they would profit from his next move. While Newcastle is monitoring the talented striker, another Premier League club is also interested.

According to Florian Plettenberg of Sky Sports Germany, Manchester United are actively searching for attacking reinforcements this summer and have already started discussions.

The club is closely scouting the market, with a particular focus on the Bundesliga, where they are keeping a close eye on Ekitike and Benjamin Sesko.

Arsenal are also reportedly keeping an eye on the French forward, per a recent update from Sky Sports Switzerland. The report mentions that Frankfurt would ask for at least €80 million (£67.5 million).

Moreover, the Gunners have been interested in Ekitike since before Andrea Berta took over as sporting director.
