Sky Germany has reported that Eintracht Frankfurt has set an asking price of €80 million for their star striker, Hugo Ekitiké. This comes as the club prepares for potential transfers following the successful sales of players such as Kolo Muani, Marmoush, Jovic, and Haller.
Internally, there is a strong belief, estimated at 99%, that Ekitiké will leave the club during the summer transfer window. The 22-year-old striker has made a significant impact this season, contributing to 27 goals in 38 matches, even after the departure of Omar Marmoush in January 2025.
Ekitiké joined Frankfurt from Paris Saint-Germain for €16.5 million last summer. Major clubs, including Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, and Juventus, are reportedly interested in acquiring him.
If a team meets the asking price, the transfer would mark the second largest sale in Frankfurt's history, surpassing the sale of Omar Marmoush. The club's top ten biggest sales include:
1. Randal Kolo Muani to Paris Saint-Germain in 2023/24 - €95 million
2. Omar Marmoush to Manchester City in 2024/25 - €75 million
3. Luka Jovic to Real Madrid in 2019/20 - €63 million
4. Sébastien Haller to West Ham in 2019/20 - €50 million
5. Willian Pacho to Paris Saint-Germain in 2024/25 - €40 million
6. Jesper Lindstrøm to Napoli in 2023/24 - €30 million
7. André Silva to RB Leipzig in 2021/22 - €23 million
8. Filip Kostic to Juventus in 2022/23 - €14.7 million
9. Djibril Sow to Sevilla in 2023/24 - €10 million
10. Kevin Trapp to Paris Saint-Germain in 2015/16 - €9.5 million
As the summer transfer window approaches, it remains to be seen if Frankfurt will successfully navigate another high-profile sale.
