Frankfurt was famous for being a very careful club in selling players, but the Liverpool side was quite calm at the speed of the negotiation process. Part of the reason comes from Ekitike's desire to move to Anfield, an important factor that can make a lever for the deal.
Yesterday, Sky Sports also reported that the star of the French U21 team agreed on the principle of joining Liverpool, if the two clubs reached the transfer fee.
Notably, the plan to recruit Ekitike is not affected by the question marks around the future of existing stars at Anfield. Liverpool is said to have followed the striker for a long time, and they are especially attracted to the ability to play in the British attack.
Last season, Hugo Ekitike scored 22 goals in 48 matches in all competitions for Frankfurt, the dazzling performance contributes to help the German team win tickets to the Champions League. If docking Anfield, Ekitike promises to bring a new breeze to the Liverpool attack.
