Liverpool 'make MAJOR breakthrough in Hugo Ekitike pursuit - as Frankfurt close in on club record sale' for former PSG star

Liverpool have made a significant breakthrough in their pursuit of Eintracht Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike.

As reported by The Athletic, the Reds have reached an outline agreement with Frankfurt as they look to sign the highly-rated 23-year-old.

Liverpool are now working on finalising the deal, which could be concluded soon.

If all of the add-ons are met then it is anticipated that Ekitike could be a club-record sale for Frankfurt.

Frankfurt's current record sale is that of Randal Kolo Muani, who joined Paris Saint-Germain in 2023 for £64.2million plus £12.
