Digest more
Ultimately, Hugo Ekitike has chosen Liverpool as his new home. He is leaving Eintracht Frankfurt having signed a six-year contract at Anfield and in a deal that could, if all conditions are met, eventually rise to about £79million ($107m), taking Liverpool’s summer expenditure to just under £300m.
More than any player, Ekitike somehow both reaffirms and rejects conventional wisdom and scouting biases. He's everything "dumb" clubs get wrong about transfers, and everything "smart" clubs get right.
