Hugo Ekitike remains a key transfer target for Newcastle United this summer with personal terms close to being agreed. However, until the player is pictured holding a black and white scarf at St. James' Park, any number of clubs could swoop in and seal a late deal for the winger.
Young french talents always end up being linked with Ligue 1 heavyweights PSG on their ascent to the top, and many are bound to fancy a stint at the French champions. Ekitike has been linked with Mauricio Pochettino's side since January and that interest hasn't gone away this summer.
However, the 20-year-old, who celebrated his birthday on Monday, has already been asked if he gets a 'special' feeling when he comes up against the Paris outfit. While admitting he only thinks about his own performance in any game, Ekitike did admit it was 'beautiful' to come up against the likes of Lionel Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe.
