Hugo Ekitiké Transfer from Eintracht Frankfurt to Chelsea

Team Talk reports on Chelsea's interest in Hugo Ekitike as a potential transfer target. Chelsea are admirers of Hugo Ekitike and could turn to him if they miss out on Liam Delap. Ekitike is very interested in moving to England. Frankfurt is in a strong negotiating position as Ekitike is under contract until 2029, and it could take £70m to land him this summer.

Hugo Ekitike is expected to be one of the most talked-about names this summer. Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, and Newcastle United have all added the young French striker to their transfer lists. Bundesliga club Eintracht Frankfurt have set a price tag of €80 million for Ekitike. Although Eintracht Frankfurt plans to keep Ekitike until 2026, they would be open to selling him for the right offer. PSG is entitled to a 20% share of any future transfer profits.

Chelsea is expressing interest in Hugo Ekitike. If they decide to step up their pursuit, Manchester United could face an uphill battle to secure his signature. Ekitike's price tag is reportedly around €80 million.

Hugo Ekitike has attracted interest from Chelsea as a potential upgrade on Nicolas Jackson. Despite Jackson showing promise, Chelsea may seek a new striker to improve their goal-scoring capabilities. Fabrizio Romano expects Ekitike to leave Eintracht Frankfurt this summer, with Premier League clubs already making inquiries.

Chelsea is contemplating the acquisition of Hugo Ekitike as an alternative option to Alexander Isak for the upcoming summer transfer window. Ekitike, who is currently with Eintracht Frankfurt, is considered a more budget-friendly choice compared to Isak. Despite this, Frankfurt reportedly wishes to keep Ekitike for at least another season, having set his valuation at £60 million. The club is known for selling strikers at high prices, with Ekitike potentially being the next to follow this trend. Chelsea is competing with Arsenal, who are also showing interest in Ekitike as they aim to sign a top-tier No.9. Although Frankfurt is hesitant to let Ekitike go, the summer transfer window might see negotiations heat up if clubs are prepared to meet the asking price.
