Liverpool have been handed a significant boost amid their hopes of signing Eintracht Frankfurt star Hugo Ekitike this summer.

The Reds, along with Chelsea, are reportedly showing an interest in the Frenchman.

Chelsea did appear to be leading the race for the striker - but it now appears that Liverpool have been offered a chance to make their move.

According to Sky Germany's Florian Plettenberg, the Blues have failed to reach a full agreement with Frankfurt for the forward, and have now given up completing a deal before the Club World Cup, while Liverpool are mentioned as still being in the race.
