While he refused to leave PSG this summer, Hugo Ekitike is now considering packing up in January.
If PSG has often been criticized for not knowing how to sell its players, this was not the case this summer. The capital club thus collected more than 200 million euros in the transfer window. Several undesirables, like Neymar (€90 million, Al-Hilal), Marco Verratti (€45 million, Al-Arabi), Abdou Diallo (€15 million, Al-Arabi), Mauro Icardi (€10 million, Galatasaray), Julian Draxler (€9 million, Al-Ahli), Georginio Wjnaldum (€6 million, Al-Ettifaq) and Leandro Paredes (€2.5 million, AS Roma), thus cleared the floor.
Hugo Ekitike was also one of those that Paris Saint-Germain wanted to push towards the exit, a departure to Frankfurt having long been mentioned, but the French striker clung to his dream of winning with the Rouge et Bleu. A bet which is proving to be a losing one for the moment since it does not fit into the plans of his coach, Luis Enrique, who left him out of the group for the Champions League. Condemned not to play, will the 21-year-old striker be able to endure the situation for much longer?
According to 90min, the former Rémois would now be open to the idea of packing up and willing to accept a loan this winter if his playing time has not increased by then. In the Premier League, Crystal Palace, Brentford, Everton, Wolverhampton and West Ham would be interested in his profile, but Hugo Etikike would prefer to stay in Ligue 1. Lyon, Lens or even Reims, which he left in 2023 for nearly 30 million euros in order to reach Paris, would not leave him indifferent. See you in January…
