Liverpool s best signing is born! A new star worth 95 million euros has become the core of the striker, and the Premier League is just around the corner.

I recently took a look at the team's new players. If I were to rate them, Ekitic has been able to score more than 8.5 points. Frimpong has integrated very quickly, followed by Wirtz. The worst ones are Isaac and Kolquez, who have completely become victims of the team's tactical failure. There is no doubt that if we were to choose Liverpool's best signing this summer, I think most friends would vote for Ekitic. As the planned substitute forward, Ekitic's performance was even better than that of Isaac, the "main player".

Ekitic made his debut in Reims and started playing in Ligue 1 at the age of 18. Although he is not as talented as forwards like Mbappe and Haaland, Ekitic's growth rate is amazing. He became the main force of Reims at the age of 19, became a rotation player in Paris at the age of 20, and became the absolute core of the Bundesliga team Eintracht Frankfurt at the age of 22. This season, he joined Liverpool with a super high transfer fee of 95 million euros. He completed an astonishing four consecutive jumps in just five years. However, this talented forward has still not reached the peak of his career. Obviously, what he lacks most is experience.

Even so, Ekitic became Liverpool's top scorer. He contributed 6 goals and 1 assist in just 13 games, performing better than Salah, Gakpo and others. Ekitic does not look like a young forward who is only 23 years old at all. Instead, he is as comprehensive as Torres back then. He has better physical fitness than Torres. He can also retreat to the midfield to catch the ball and even organize attacks. Now it seems that Liverpool has not lost much money by swapping the transfer fees of Isaac and Ekitic.

When Slott wanted to change the team's tactical play, Ekitic's excellent foot skills allowed him to drop back to catch the ball and organize the offense like Firmino. He could also cooperate with his teammates on the wing, and sometimes he could boldly make some incredible passing moves, which Liverpool did not have in the past. With his addition, even if Liverpool's tactical characteristics are figured out by their opponents, they will not decline too much this season. At least Ekitic will help Slaughter.

Liverpool is currently ranked 7th in the Premier League standings, 7 points behind Arsenal at the top. As the team has recently suffered 4 consecutive losses in the league, its state is very unstable. But it is in such adversity that Ekitic's stable performance becomes particularly valuable. His existence ensures the lower limit of the team's offensive line. As his tacit understanding with core players such as Wirtz and Salah further improves, Liverpool's offensive system is expected to exert greater power.

Therefore, although this season's Premier League journey seems particularly difficult, the addition of Ekitic will undoubtedly provide a stable enough goal guarantee for Liverpool's prospects of competing for the fourth place. Not only did he prove his worth of 95 million euros with 6 goals and 1 assist, but he also used his excellent tactical adaptability and maturity beyond his age to become a true striker under Slott. When the 23-year-old talented forward grows up step by step, Liverpool's bid for fourth place this season will not be a problem. After Wirtz and Isaac are fully integrated into the team in the future, Liverpool may become a key player in the Premier League championship.
