The English club "Newcastle" is working on the transfer of striker Hugo Ekitike from Frankfurt's "Eintracht." This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The French player has been designated as a priority transfer target by the "Magpies." It is known that "Eintracht" is demanding 100 million euros for the 23-year-old player and is not ready to offer discounts to buyers.
However, "Newcastle" is not afraid of such a price. According to journalist Graham Bailey from "Gazeta.ru," the English club is ready to meet this demand and aims to break its transfer record.
Currently, "Newcastle's" most expensive transfer is Alexander Isak, who was bought from "Real Sociedad" for 70 million euros in the summer of 2022. Thus, the club is showing that it is ready to spend a significant amount to acquire a new player.
This transfer is expected to significantly strengthen the attacking power of the "Newcastle" team. Football fans are eagerly awaiting this news.
