Hugo Ekitike, the 22-year-old striker who has been a regular performer at Eintracht Frankfurt since arriving on loan in early 2024 and then transferring permanently in the summer, could bring a handsome sum to Paris Saint-Germain in the 2025 summer mercato. That’s what the latest rumours suggest.
Sky Sport reports that Newcastle are targeting the French striker to compensate for the possible departure of Alexander Isak (25). Eintracht Frankfurt are reportedly not selling, but could open the door for €80 million. A sum that would not be a stop for the English club, and a transfer could be negotiated. Arsenal are also said to be interested, which could add pressure to the discussions.
We remain cautious about these rumours, but they are interesting for PSG. According to several media reports, he has a clause to receive 20% of any capital gain on the sale of Ekitike. Ekitike left for around 20 million euros. That’s quite an attractive sum. Especially if the player continues to put in a string of fine performances for Frankfurt.
