Manchester United enter Hugo Ekitike race! Ruben Amorim's side aim to rival Liverpool and Chelsea for €100m Eintracht Frankfurt hitman in remarkable transfer scramble

United have been interested in signing a striker this summer for Ruben Amorim's squad, with Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee having endured a horrific campaign at Old Trafford. The Red Devils have been linked with a number of names, including Viktor Gyokeres, Benjamin Sesko and Liam Delap, who has already joined Chelsea.

Sky Germany's Florian Plettenberg has now reported that United have entered the race for Frankfurt striker Ekitike. The Bundesliga side have placed a price tag of €100 million (£85m/$116m) on the French hitman.

Chelsea and Liverpool are also said to be interested in signing Ekitike this summer, with both the Reds and the Blues also on the hunt for a striker. The West London side want to add competition to Nicolas Jackson this summer, while the Merseyside club want to replace the misfiring Darwin Nunez.

United are set to continue their hunt for a striker, and it seems that the Red Devils may be ready to conduct a fire sale if they want to sign Ekitike, or Gyokeres, who is also set to cost around the same price this summer.
