Revealed in the colors of Stade de Reims, Hugo Ekitike took off on a tangent in the summer of 2022 with the aim of taking a new step in his young career. A risky bet given the tough competition on the Parisian attack front at the time which ultimately did not pay off. Author of a mixed first season in the French capital (4 goals and 4 assists in 32 matches in all competitions), the 21-year-old saw his situation worsen with the arrival of Luis Enrique on the Ile-de-France bench.
Having become unwanted following his aborted transfer to Frankfurt and having not set foot on a Ligue 1 pitch for 4 months now, Hugo Ekitike is counting on the winter transfer window to relaunch a stalled career. If the main interested party seems willing to make financial efforts, The Team informs in today’s edition that the French champion has received a firm offer from a German club whose identity has not yet been revealed. At the same time, AC Milan, in search of an attacker, is closely following the evolution of its file. L’Evening Standard adds that Crystal Palace is also thinking of him. It remains to be seen whether the offer in question will coincide with Parisian financial requirements (loan with purchase option, payment of his salary by his future club).
