Liverpool added to the French
According to Sky SportsArne Slot and Michael Edwards are very interested in the talented young attacking and have already put the feelings for the striker.
The report states that the initial talks have already taken place and it is left to see how the situation is developed. According to reports, Liverpool plays a smart tactical game in order to make the agreement. They need an update to Darwin Núñez this summer.
The striker has a launch clause of 100 million euros In his contract, and it is fair to assume that no club will want to pay this type of money for him. Although it is an elite talent, it is still largely tested at the highest level.
Liverpool will probably try to sign it for a more reasonable amount of money. They will also face a strong competition from Chelsea, who also looks like the French attacker.
Chelsea looking at Hugo Ekitike
Blues need to find a quality update to Nicolas Jackson, and Ekitike would be a solid acquisition. He has shown his capacity for Bundesliga and also has technical attributes to prosper in the Premier League.
Liverpool and Chelsea are among the largest clubs in the country, and the opportunity to unite will be quite tempting for the player. Regular football in England could accelerate its development and also help it fulfill its potential. It will be interesting to see where it ends.
