Arsenal will need to step up in their quest to sign France forward of Cameroonian descent, Hugo Ekitiké.
This is because fellow English Premier League side Newcastle United has also joined the race.
The Magpies are reportedly looking at strengthening their squad in the summer transfer window and have decided to poach Hugo Ekitiké.
This season, Hugo Ekitiké has scored 18 goals in the 36 games he has played in all competitions.
The talented forward is expected to leave German Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt in the summer transfer window.
Hugo Ekitiké, 22, will reportedly cost a whopping 80 million euros at the end of the current season.
Arsenal and Newcastle United must now be guided accordingly and look at matching the value if they really want to sign the Cameroonian forward.
The future of Hugo Ekitiké will become clearer in the final months of the 2024/25 football season.
Any move to a Premier League side will be a step up for the Cameroonian’s career.
