Ekitike’s Move to Anfield: A Deep Dive
Sources indicate that Liverpool have agreed to a transfer fee of €79 million for Ekitike, with €69 million payable upfront and the remainder structured as performance-related bonuses. This meaningful investment underscores Liverpool’s commitment to bolstering their attacking options. Ekitike is expected to fly to Liverpool on Tuesday, July 22, 2025, to undergo a medical examination and finalize a six-year contract.
Financial Implications of the Ekitike Transfer
The financial package for Ekitike extends beyond the transfer fee, with reports suggesting a weekly salary that dwarfs his current earnings at Eintracht Frankfurt. While Ekitike was reportedly earning less than €5 million per year (approximately £80,000 per week including bonuses) at his current club,his new contract with Liverpool is rumored to be in the region of €250,000 per week gross,equating to an annual salary of €15-16 million.
This substantial increase represents a significant career and financial leap for the 22-year-old forward. Ekitike’s career trajectory has been notable; after a period where his advancement stalled at Paris Saint-Germain in 2023, he has since seen his stock rise dramatically during his 1.5-year spell with Frankfurt.
Ekitike’s Salary Places Him Among Liverpool’s Elite
The reported weekly wage for Ekitike positions him as the third highest-paid player at Liverpool,trailing only Mohamed Salah and Virgil Van Dijk. This salary figure surpasses that of fellow Bundesliga recruits Florian Wirtz (€195,000 per week) and Jeremie Frimpong (€100,000 per week).
Moreover, Ekitike’s projected earnings will place him above several of Liverpool’s current attacking talents. Cody gakpo is understood to earn £120,000 per week, Darwin Nunez £150,000 per week, and Luis Diaz £55,000 per week. This move signals Liverpool’s intent to secure top-tier talent and reward them accordingly in a competitive market.
