This comes after Liverpool made a move for Ekitike earlier this week, following reports that Newcastle United's Alexander Isak is not for sale. Ekitike has signed a six-year contract with Liverpool and is eager to join the team.
The 23-year-old Ekitike scored 22 goals in 48 games for Frankfurt last season, helping the team qualify for the Champions League. He will now join Liverpool's squad on their preseason tour of Asia, which begins this weekend against AC Milan.
Liverpool's spending has exceeded £300 million this summer, with the arrival of several new players, including Florian Wirtz, Jeremie Frimpong, Milos Kerkez, Giorgi Mamardashvili, and Armin Pecsi, as well as free agent Freddie Woodman.
