Hugo Ekitike has been linked to all three clubs. And for a moment, it looked like a decision had been made.
With the summer transfer window in full swing, fans are glued to every bit of news. And in recent weeks, Hugo Ekitike’s name has been everywhere.
Whispers of a move to England have only grown louder. Manchester United have been looking for a reliable number nine. Chelsea want more cutting edge in the final third.
And Liverpool? They are always on the lookout for young, exciting forwards.
Even after adding Florian Wirtz, Jeremie Frimpong and Milos Kerkez, the Reds are looking for a striker.
Hugo Ekitike has been linked to all three clubs. And for a moment, it looked like a decision had been made.
Social media buzzed over the weekend. One viral post claimed the striker had not only chosen his next team.
Suddenly, everyone believed they knew where Ekitike would be playing next season, fans debated, journalists speculated, and the internet went wild.
So, it seemed like a done deal. But it turns out, the truth was far from it.
Ekitike did not sign for any club. In fact, he came forward to clear the air. And his words have flipped the whole story.
The former Paris Saint-Germain striker has officially denied the rumours.
As posted by Foot Mercato, he shut down the viral claims about choosing Cameroon over France.
He confirmed that he never made any statement about picking a national team and labelled the circulating reports as false.
So, while fans hoped for clarity on his club future, Hugo Ekitike’s response was about something else entirely. There is still no word on where he will play next season.
Manchester United, Chelsea, and Liverpool all remain in the picture.
But for now, the forward is focused on clearing up misinformation rather than choosing sides.
However, one thing is for sure; this Hugo Ekitike transfer saga is far from over.
