Liverpool are reportedly keen on signing Paris Saint-Germain forward Hugo Ekitike, but they could face stiff competition from Spanish giants Real Madrid.
The 21-year-old Frenchman, who spent last season on loan at Eintracht Frankfurt, has struggled to secure regular playing time at PSG. Despite his limited opportunities, Ekitike's potential has caught the attention of several top European clubs.
Transfer Battle Heats Up
According to reports, Liverpool view Ekitike as a promising addition to their attacking options. However, Real Madrid have now entered the race, potentially complicating the Reds' pursuit.
Ekitike's situation at PSG remains unclear, with the Ligue 1 champions reportedly open to offers. The young striker's versatility and technical ability make him an attractive prospect for clubs looking to strengthen their frontline.
What This Means for Liverpool
If Liverpool succeed in signing Ekitike, he could provide valuable depth behind Mohamed Salah and Darwin Núñez. His ability to play across the front three would give manager Jürgen Klopp more tactical flexibility.
However, with Real Madrid also showing interest, the transfer saga could develop into a bidding war between two of Europe's most prestigious clubs.
