    Eintracht Frankfurt star Hugo Ekitiké appears to be close to a move to Liverpool.

    After an initial offer of €76 million plus bonuses was rejected, Liverpool are now preparing a second bid worth €80 million plus an additional €10 million in bonuses, according to transfer insider Sacha Tavolieri.

    This improved offer is expected to lead to an agreement between the two clubs.

    Ekitiké would become Liverpool’s third major signing from the Bundesliga this summer following the arrivals of Florian Wirtz and Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen.

    The 23-year-old French forward scored 15 goals and provided eight assists in 33 Bundesliga games last season.
