Hugo Ekitike to Liverpool? Now that could be a game-changer. 🔥

With 21 goals across all competitions this season, the 22-year-old is seriously making waves—and clearly has the kind of profile Arne Slot would love: tall, technical, and tireless off the ball. That left-sided drifting, calm finishing, and pressing intensity? It all screams “Slot-style forward.”

It’s interesting how he’s being viewed as a potential long-term solution—especially with the uncertainties around Nunez’s consistency and Jota’s injury record. Ekitike brings that combo of physicality and finesse, and his work rate defensively (2.3 tackles/90!) shows he’s not just there to poach goals.

The fee though… €90–100m is steep. Feels like Frankfurt knows exactly what they’ve got, especially after turning a €20m signing into a breakout star in a season. Still cheaper than what Newcastle want for Isak, and with lower wages, it could make more sense financially.

If this goes through, how do you see Liverpool’s front line shaping up next season? Would Ekitike slot in as a starter or rotate with Nunez?
