Paris Saint-Germain are keeping a close eye on Hugo Ekitiké’s potential move to Eintracht Frankfurt, with a 20 percent sell-on clause giving them a chance to pocket a decent profit if the deal goes through.
Newcastle are still interested in Ekitiké as a possible successor to Alexander Isak. They’ve followed him since his time in Paris, and according to CaughtOffside, another Premier League club has also entered the race for the 22-year-old.
Manchester United are also said to be in the mix. Football Insider reports that the club has been monitoring Ekitiké’s progress in Frankfurt while searching for a new No. 9 ahead of the summer.
