Eintracht Frankfurt have increased their price tag for Hugo Ekitike to €100m (£85.7m) amid interest from the Premier League.
The Bundesliga side had previously valued the Frenchman at around €80m (£68.5m) but have increased their demands amid mounting interest from England.
Liverpool have been heavily linked with Ekitike of late, while Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United are among the clubs weighing up centre-forward signings.

Ekitike has been in exceptional form since turning his loan move to Frankfurt into a permanent deal last summer. The 22-year-old has scored 21 goals and provided a further nine assists in all competitions, including a brilliant individual effort against Tottenham in the Europa League this month.
Frankfurt signed Ekitike from Paris Saint-Germain for just €16.5m last summer and the France u-21 international is contracted until 2029 – leaving the German side in a strong negotiating position.
Frankfurt have a history of recouping large fees for attacking talent, including the sales of Randal Kolo Muani (€95m) and Omar Marmoush (€70m) in recent transfer windows.
Sky Germany are reporting that the Bundesliga side will now demand a club-record fee for Ekitike, who is the joint-highest scoring player aged 22 or under across Europes’s top five leagues, alongside Chelsea’s Cole Palmer.
