After adding five new faces already, the Reds are now closely watching French striker Hugo Ekitike.
With Darwin Nunez’s future still uncertain, a move for the Eintracht Frankfurt forward is gathering pace — and the man with the famous “Here We Go,” Fabrizio Romano, has dropped an update that has fans on high alert.
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Romano said: “His future still remains open.
The 23-year-old forward brings pace, power, and that modern flexibility up front that Arne Slot wants.
He isn’t just a poacher — he can drift wide, link up play, and pop up in the box at just the right moment.

The dominoes may soon fall.
Frankfurt have signed Jonathan Burkardt from Mainz, who is expected to fill Ekitike’s role in the squad.
That move has now opened the door for the French forward to leave this summer.
Romano also highlighted that timing is everything, saying: “The timing of the Darwin Nunez departure will be crucial to his future.”
With Napoli expected to return with a new bid for Nunez, Liverpool’s move for Ekitike could accelerate quickly — assuming the right offer lands for the Uruguayan.
So far, Ekitike fits all the boxes Liverpool look for — young, fast, and full of potential.
And if Nunez does leave, don’t be surprised if the Reds waste no time pulling the trigger.
