Liverpool won the EPL! Crazy! It ended with the BBC breaking news130 billion again, right before recruiting the strongest striker in the world
Liverpool must have ground its teeth properly.

Multiple media outlets, including the BBC, are negotiating to recruit Eintracht Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike for a transfer fee of more than 70 million pounds (about 130.6 billion won) on the 17th (Korea time). Liverpool plans to complete the transfer by the end of the week, according to several sources.

Originally, Ekitiecke was a player who received the attention of Manchester United and Newcastle United. The club that moved ahead of Liverpool was Newcastle. We have also negotiated with Ekitike, and we have already put in the first proposal. However, when Liverpool appeared, Ekitike changed his mind, and the situation is changing urgently as Frankfurt also heard a story that would offer better conditions than Newcastle.




The BBC reported that `Newcastle was rejected by Frankfurt for an offer of £70 million in Ekiti, and Liverpool's offer is expected to be higher. Ekiti is open to joining Liverpool, the Premier League champions who want a striker.

Originally, Liverpool tried to sign Newcastle ace Alexander Isak. Liverpool prepared 120 million pounds (about 223.9 billion won), which is equivalent to the highest transfer fee in league history. It was a surprising transfer fee, but Newcastle expressed their position that they would not sell Isaac for any amount of money. After confirming that Newcastle's doctor was stubborn, Liverpool immediately decided to turn around Ekiti, the second option.

Ekitike began to attract attention at the Stadren in the 2021-2022 season. At that time, he emerged from the French league with impressive performances at a young age under the age of 20. Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) immediately recruited him.

However, Ekitike's career did not go as far as expected after his transfer to PSG. The playing time was limited, and Ekitike's position narrowed as the team brought in additional Randal Kolo-Muani and Gonzalo Hamus. In the end, he sought a direct transfer for the opportunity to play, but was embroiled in a controversy as he pushed for a transfer to Crystal Palace without consultation with the club.

As a result, PSG excluded Ekitike from the first team, and he did not play for six months. After a frustrating period, Ekitike rebounded after a loan move to Frankfurt in the winter of 2024. He has grown into a league-leading striker with 19 goals and 8 assists in 38 games in the Bundesliga in the 2024-2025 season. Immediately, he caught the eye of big clubs and now dreamed of going to Liverpool.




Liverpool are thinking of bringing Ekittiecke in while clearing Darwin Núñez. Unfortunately, striker reinforcement was essential to fill Diogo Jota's lack of scoring ability.
