Many Premier League giants are interested! Photo: Frankfurt insists on Ekitic s quotation of about 100 million euros
According to Biography, Frankfurt is facing a deadlock in Ekitic's transfer matter, and the club has always insisted on a huge offer of about 100 million euros.
Ekitic will face a multi-million-euro transfer this summer. Ekitic has been negotiating with top Premier League clubs for weeks. These include Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester United.
But Frankfurt requires a transfer in the area of around 100 million euros. Currently, Frankfurt has not negotiated with any club. Ekitic hasn't even reached a verbal agreement with any club.
The reason is that there is almost no funds available for buying strikers in the market. Almost all clubs that need to buy attackers must also sell their problem stars first. These include Chelsea (Jackson), Manchester United (Hoylen) and Liverpool (Nuñez). Nunes is alleged to transfer to Naples, but Naples must first try to sell Osmeon to Riyadh Crescent.
It is likely that the market will not change until the end of the Club World Cup on July 13 at the earliest. The event allocates a total of about 800 million euros to the participating clubs. Rich Premier League clubs usually take action later.
According to Biography, Frankfurt is therefore expected to not make decisive progress in Ekitic's transfer until August.
Precisely because there are no major negotiations yet, Frankfurt insists on maintaining a huge offer. Club sports director Marcus Klescher will stick to this price for a long time, and even if you make concessions, you will only make a minimum cut.
Ekitic was 23 years old at the time and was a French striker. Last season, he made 48 appearances for Frankfurt, scoring 22 goals and 12 assists.
