Eintracht Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike has been linked with a move to the Premier League in recent months, with Chelsea, Liverpool, and Manchester United keen.

Multiple clubs are keen on Hugo Ekitike, but Manchester United are the only one who are yet to make a move. According to an update by reputed German journalist Florian Plettenberg, Chelsea and Liverpool are keen on the French attacker, but they are yet to make a move for him.

Manchester United are his favourite club, and it will be interesting to see if they can sign the 22-year-old. The Red Devils need a quality striker this summer, and Ekitike could prove to be the ideal acquisition. The Frenchman is young enough to improve further, and he would be a solid long-term acquisition.

However, he will be an expensive acquisition for them. The Bundesliga club are unlikely to let him leave easily. It will be interesting to see if Manchester United can negotiate a deal with them. The French striker scored 22 goals last season, and he picked up 12 assists as well. Hugo Ekitike is more than just a goalscorer, and he will help carve out opportunities for his teammates as well.

Manchester United must sign Hugo Ekitike

The French attacker is exceptional when it comes to taking on defenders in one versus one situations. He will add unpredictability to the Manchester United attack as well. The Red Devils have spent a substantial amount of money on attacking signings in recent windows. However, their current options have been quite mediocre with their performances.

Manchester United need an upgrade on Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee in the summer, and signing a quality striker will be a priority for them. Hugo Ekitike has the tools to develop into a reliable Premier League striker, and the opportunity to join Manchester United will be quite exciting for him.

Chelsea and Liverpool need attacking reinforcements as well, and they have their sights on the 22-year-old French attacker. They need to bring in an upgrade on Nicolas Jackson and Darwin Nunez. Both players have been quite mediocre, and their clubs need better options at their disposal if they want to fight for major trophies next year.
