The summer transfer window officially starts this Tuesday 1er July. With some clubs for some clearly defined targets for some. Each time the same catchphrase, the biggest fish seek above all to strengthen their offensive lines. A particularly true imperative this year in the English High Spheres, where the biggest clubs are working to hear their future star scorer.

Once is not custom, Manchester City is not in the race for one of the most cited attackers of the moment. But the competitors of the Skyblues are. Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, all would have the same idea to complete their line-up: a certain Hugo Ekitike, the former player of the Reims stadium and PSG.

According to information from the German media Bild, the Gunners are among the most pressing and insistent courtiers with Eintracht Frankfurt. The latter struggling to obtain concrete advances in their two other long -standing files: those of Viktor Gyökeres (Sporting) and Benjamin Sesko (Leipzig).

To the good memory of Kolo Muani

This season across the Rhine, the 23-year-old Champenois has punctured the screen, credited with 22 goals (including 15 in the Bundesliga and four in the Europa League) and 12 assists in 48 outings in all competitions. And his profile as a slender and technical attacker, comfortable in the air, is not to leave candidates insensitive to the title in the Premier League.

Estimated at 75 million euros by the specialized TransferMarkt site, Hugo Ekitike, under Frankfurt Contract until June 2029, is worth between 90 and 100 million euros according to the management of Eintracht, deemed to be in business. Recall that Randal Kolo Muani in the summer of 2023 had left Frankfurt for Paris against 90 million euros.
