Liverpool remain seriously interested in Eintracht Frankfurt's Hugo Ekitiké, according to Sky Germany.

The Reds still see themselves as having a very good chance in the race for the French striker, but Manchester United and Chelsea are still there.

Should the reigning Premier League champions attempt to sign Ekitiké, the sale of Darwin Núñez is a vitally important first step.

Liverpool feel that Napoli are the likely favourites to sign Núñez, as the player tends to prefer staying in Europe.

Talks between the clubs have started, and Liverpool will not stand in his way should he decide to leave.
