"When Hugo Ekitike decided to move clubs this summer, many observers expected interest from a swathe of top teams across Europe. Yet, despite reported approaches from Manchester United and Newcastle, the French forward ultimately opted to commit to Liverpool. In an interview, Ekitike opened up about why he turned down others and chose Anfield, offering insight into both his ambition and his vision for his next chapter."
"It's just the best choice, the champion of England, explained Liverpool's No. 22, as reported by Liverpool.com. For me, they had great players, greatest story, it just fit for what I was looking for after Frankfurt. So yeah, I think it was a good choice for me, yeah, that's why I chose Liverpool, it's just the best option and I wanted to come."
Hugo Ekitike turned down offers from clubs including Manchester United and Newcastle to sign for Liverpool. He cited Liverpool's strong squad, storied history, and alignment with what he wanted after leaving Frankfurt. He said the club's framework, infrastructure, and ambition would give him the best chance to flourish and improve. Ekitike has scored five goals in nine appearances across all competitions this season. He received a red card in the Carabao Cup after celebrating a goal while already booked, for which he apologised and vowed to be more careful in future matches.
