Arsenal and Chelsea eye Frankfurt’s Ekitike as striker alternative

Arsenal and Chelsea have set their sights on Eintracht Frankfurt’s Hugo Ekitike as a potential attacking reinforcement for the upcoming summer transfer window. According to CaughtOffside, the French forward is being considered as a backup option if moves for other high-profile targets, such as Alexander Isak, fail to materialize.

The Bundesliga club remains intent on keeping the 21-year-old as the player is under contract until 2029. However, he might be allowed to depart if a suitor meets Frankfurt’s valuation – reportedly set at £60 million, excluding potential add-ons.
