Liverpool have made an offer of €80m (£69m) plus add-ons for Eintracht Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike.

Sky Sports News understands the total package in this offer could rise to €90m, which is around £78m, but talks continue over the structure of the add-ons.

It comes after 48 hours of negotiations between the two parties, after Liverpool's interest was made public earlier this week.

Talks continue but so far negotiations between the two have been positive and progressive.

Ekitike scored 22 goals in 48 games across all competitions last season for Frankfurt as he helped them qualify for the Champions League.
