Liverpool have confirmed the signing of French forward Hugo Ekitike from Eintracht Frankfurt in a transfer that could total to £79 million with the inclusion of add-ons. Ekitike, previously of Paris Saint-Germain and Stade de Reims, has signed a six-year contract and will join his new team mates in Hong Kong this week.

Liverpool's latest big-money signing in attack doesn't necessarily mean they no longer have interest in Newcastle's star striker.
