Liverpool appreciate Eintracht Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike, but no talks or negotiations have taken place so far, with their focus being on securing a deal for Florian Wirtz, Fabrizio Romano has confirmed in his exclusive GIVEMESPORT newsletter
What a wild start to the summer it’s been at Anfield!
The big shock? Trent Alexander-Arnold has officially left the club after seeing out his contract—a tough goodbye for any Red. But the club wasted no time getting down to business. Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk have both committed their futures to Liverpool with new deals, and Jeremie Frimpong has come in as the new man to take up the right-back mantle. Big shoes to fill, but exciting potential.
Now, all eyes are on Florian Wirtz. According to Sky Sports, the incredibly talented Bayer Leverkusen playmaker is expecting to join Liverpool this summer. The price tag? Over £100 million—which sends a clear message: Liverpool aren’t messing around.
🔴 Fabrizio Romano Drops a Hint: Ekitike on the Radar
Romano, in his latest exclusive with GIVEMESPORT, confirmed that Hugo Ekitike is definitely on Liverpool’s radar. While no talks have taken place just yet, there’s clear interest.
> “He’s appreciated for sure, but no talks or negotiations so far. Liverpool’s priority is the Wirtz deal now—then we’ll see,” says Romano.
And honestly, who wouldn’t want Ekitike? He’s a dynamic young forward who could really freshen up our attacking options. But with an estimated £84m price tag, that would take Liverpool’s potential summer spend to well over £200m if both Wirtz and Ekitike arrive. Big ambitions, big investments.
With the squad already boasting Premier League winners, the goal is obvious: get back to challenging on all fronts. After a trophyless season, it’s time to bring silverware back to Anfield. The rebuild is real—and it’s heating up fast.
Up the Reds. 🔴🔥
