Hawkins said: “Chelsea is still planning to sign Hugo Ekitike this summer and the negotiations underway with the players’ camp. A meeting has taken place between the two parties in recent days. The contact was therefore not interrupted, even if the agreement has not progressed. Francfurt still requests 100 million euros for the French striker. »»
Hugo Ekitike could be a superb signature for Chelsea
Chelsea’s interest in Ekitike is something that we have reported before, the blues eager for 22 years to give them a certain tactical flexibility.
Although Ekitike works mainly as a central striker, as the new CFC signing Liam Delap, he can also play with good effect on the left of a front-three.
Ekitike could also do well for Arsenal and other high -level clubs after the superb form he has shown lately, but it seems that Chelsea’s interest is the strongest.
Chelsea Chasing Ekitike and Gittens
Chelsea spent big under these current owners, and it seems that we can expect more than the same this summer.
Delap has already joined and Hawkins also reported on the giants of western London aimed at a decision for the winger of Borussia Dortmund Jamie Gittens…

Gittens and Ekitike could be ideal signatures to strengthen this Chelsea side, with upgrades necessary to attack players like Nicolas Jackson, Pedro Neto and Joao Felix.
