Eintracht Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike has revealed that he is a Manchester United fan, prompting speculation that he could end up at Old Trafford this summer.

Previously at PSG, a team that has since pivoted to focusing much more on young talents like him, Ekitike failed to break into the starting XI with the French giant after a move from Reims, and his career has only really ignited since he moved to Germany.

Domestically, Ekitike has scored 19 goals and laid on another eight for his club teammates in all competitions.

Eintracht Frankfurt paid PSG a modest fee of just $18 million (£14 million) to sign Ekitike after a successful loan spell.

He is expected to move on again this summer with a price tag of $87 million (£67 million) — even more than Manchester City paid the same club for Omar Marmoush in January.

In an interview with Eintracht Frankfurt's YouTube channel, Ekitike said Manchester United was his "favorite" club as a child.

Ekitike would be much better suited to its aims now than before — though he says he learned plenty in Paris.
