Hugo Ekitike has been having an outstanding season with Eintracht Frankfurt. He has scored 19 goals and provided eight assists in 40 appearances. His form has been remarkable, despite the departure of top scorer Omar Marmoush. Ekitike's technique and dribbling skills are highly praised. He has had experiences at various clubs and is now proving himself as a great lone striker. Even if a transfer is likely this summer, Eintracht Frankfurt has a model for developing and selling players for profit.

The club has a history of selling top talents like Randal Kolo Muani, Marmoush, and Luka Jovic for significant amounts. Despite the potential loss of Ekitike, the club trusts its sporting director to find the next rising star.
