The big loser of the transfer window. This summer, Hugo Ekitike went through all the states. Determined to seize his chance under Luis Enrique, the striker, bought permanently by PSG for 35 million euros, tried to show his best face in pre-season and during the tour of Japan and South Korea. South. The former Reims player had also scored points with the Asturian as explained The Parisian. He therefore hoped to find a place in this new PSG with a French accent.
But he quickly fell from above. Just days following the Asia tour, Luis Campos and Luis Enrique told him in a meeting that he was no longer part of their plans. A blow to the head of Ekitike, very shocked at the time unlike Neymar, Marco Verratti, Renato Sanches and Juan Bernat also summoned to this meeting. Asked to leave, the native of Reims had to take the hit, he who played once morest Lorient on the first day on August 12. Present 9 minutes on the lawn, he has not been used since.

A soul market
Paris certainly wanted to preserve him pending his possible transfer. It must be said that several clubs were following him, more or less seriously. Everton, Borussia Dortmund, AC Milan, Lens, OL, West Ham, Crystal Palace or even Eintracht Frankfurt were ready to recover it. The player had a preference for the RCL, who eventually recruited Elye Wahi. A proof despite everything that he was not closed to a departure. There have also been concrete talks with the Hammers as well as Frankfurt, who wanted to make him Randal Kolo Muani’s replacement.

A boon for Paris, which wanted to include it in the RKM deal. Only problem, Ekitike refused to be used as currency of exchange. Despite pressure and the great anger of Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, he did not want to sign in Germany and he finally stayed with the champions of France. But he will not play a priori until the next transfer window, unless he leaves for a country where the market is still open or as a joker in a Ligue 1 club. Luis Enrique has an ultra-supplied attacking sector and we can’t imagine it making room for Ekitike. Moreover, he did not call him on Sunday for the trip to Lyon when the transfer window was over.
A hellish situation
This should still be the case in the next meetings, unless the Spaniard has several injuries in attack. Placardized, the young 21-year-old player was also excluded from the PSG list for the Champions League. Another bad news for Ekitike. A player who has not been called up to the France Espoirs team either, he who can be selected as he was born following January 1, 2002. But the new coach, Thierry Henry, continues to follow him. He also sent her a message.

“I’m not going to recount the discussion we had, but he knows what he has to do. Not what I expect: just what it should do. We will see what will happen, but it is not easy to find yourself in this kind of situation. You still have to remember that a year, a year and a half ago, everyone wanted it. We had a frank discussion, he made a few remarks that interested me. We’ll see… But the fight in Paris ahead is going to be terrible. We know that there is one (Mbappé) who will play, in any case. Persona non grata at PSG, Hugo Ekitike is likely to experience difficult months in Paris.
