Chelsea Football Club is reportedly optimistic about finalizing a transfer deal for French forward Hugo Ekitike from Eintracht Frankfurt. According to insider Simon Phillips, negotiations are progressing well, and an agreement on the transfer fee, estimated to be around 84 million, is within reach. Despite having secured Liam Delap already, Chelsea views Ekitike as a crucial addition for tactical flexibility. However, Liverpool is also interested in Ekitike, which may complicate the situation. The decision could ultimately hinge on whether Ekitike prefers Chelsea's long-term project or Liverpool's recent success.
"Chelsea are reportedly confident of reaching an agreement with Eintracht Frankfurt for the potential transfer of Hugo Ekitike, with talks progressing well this week."
"Ekitike is a top transfer target for Chelsea, with the Blues keen to sign the Frenchman even though they already secured Liam Delap."
