There’s palpable anticipation at Anfield as they await their new signing.
Details: According to Nicolo Schira on social network X, English side Liverpool is on the verge of signing 23-year-old Eintracht forward Hugo Ekitike.
Reports indicate that both parties are already preparing the final paperwork for the agreement, with the player himself agreeing to a contract running until 2030.
Previously, Chelsea and Manchester United had also shown interest in Ekitike, but the striker has made it clear he’s set his sights firmly on joining Liverpool.
