WHAT HAPPENED?

Ekitike, 22, has confirmed he plans to leave Eintracht Frankfurt at the end of the season.

EKITIKE’S IMPACT AND TRANSFER WAR

Ekitike has been one of the Bundesliga’s best players since joining from Paris Saint-Germain. He became Frankfurt’s main attacker after Omar Marmoush left in January. He delivered important goals in both the league and Europe. His skill and consistency make him a top target for clubs wanting a young, dynamic striker. Frankfurt has a high asking price for him, ranging from €80 million to €100 million. Paris Saint-Germain will also benefit financially because of a sell-on clause from his previous transfer.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR FRANKFURT AND EKITIKE?

Eintracht Frankfurt is currently fifth in the Bundesliga, four points behind RB Leipzig for the final Champions League spot. Their last match is against Borussia Mönchengladbach, who are 12th in the standings and already safe from relegation. Frankfurt needs to win and hope Leipzig loses to secure a Champions League spot. After the season, Ekitike is expected to review offers and quickly decide his next move, with many Premier League teams eager to sign him.
