Hugo Ekitike’s Weekly Wage Reportedly Set Between £250,000 and £267,000 at Liverpool

Liverpool are preparing to offer Hugo Ekitike a significant weekly wage ranging from £250,000 to £267,000 as they aim to finalize his transfer to the club. This figure notably surpasses initial estimates which had suggested a weekly wage of around £215,000[1][2][5].

The 23-year-old forward is undergoing a medical on Merseyside ahead of his imminent move. Liverpool have agreed a fixed fee of £69 million with Eintracht Frankfurt, with total fees possibly rising to £78 million once add-on bonuses are included[4]. This transfer follows Liverpool’s pursuit of Ekitike after Newcastle United’s pursuit of Alexander Isak failed.

Ekitike impressed last season, scoring 22 goals in 48 appearances across all competitions, helping Frankfurt to qualify for the UEFA Champions League. Frankfurt's manager has described Ekitike’s potential departure as a "bitter loss," highlighting his importance to the team[4].

With Liverpool’s average weekly wage standing at around £95,100, the high wage offer to Ekitike underlines the club’s ambition and confidence in the striker's potential impact in the Premier League[3]. His expected salary roughly triples the club's average, indicating Liverpool's readiness to invest heavily in his talents.
