Why Liverpool Could Be Getting Exactly What They Want After Alexander Isak Transfer Twist - Liverpool Echo
MERSEYSIDE, ENGLAND, JUL 17 – Liverpool leads transfer race for Hugo Ekitike after Newcastle withdraws, with the French striker agreeing personal terms amid the club's record-breaking summer spending exceeding $300 million.
- Liverpool are moving quickly in July 2025 to sign 23-year-old striker Hugo Ekitike from Eintracht Frankfurt as their new centre-forward.

- BILD Sport correspondent Johannes Wolf stated Ekitike is ready for the Premier League but needs time to adjust and has a profile almost identical to Isak's.
- Liverpool's pursuit of Ekitike suggests they aim to strengthen their attack further after £200 million summer spending, potentially securing one of Europe's top young forwards.
