“I Can’t Stay in the Same Team With Him Again!” – Hugo Ekitike Explodes After Liverpool’s Loss to Brentford, Blaming One Teammate for His Goal Drought
BREAKING NEWS:
Liverpool’s 3–2 defeat to Brentford has sent shockwaves across Anfield, but the biggest story isn’t the scoreline — it’s the explosive statement from Hugo Ekitike after the final whistle. The French forward, clearly frustrated by his poor run of form, has dropped a bombshell that could shake the dressing room to its core.
According to close sources, Ekitike stormed out of the tunnel immediately after the match, visibly angry, and later told reporters:
> “I have informed my agent about this situation and there’s no way I will be in this team together with him this January. It’s either they sell him or I leave the club for him.”
These words have stunned Liverpool fans and sparked heavy speculation about which teammate Ekitike is referring to — the “ONE Liverpool player” he believes has been sabotaging his game and destroying his confidence on the pitch.
Frustration Boils Over After Another Empty Performance
Ekitike once again failed to find the back of the net as Liverpool struggled in attack against a disciplined Brentford side. Despite dominating possession and creating multiple openings, the French striker looked isolated and out of sync with the rest of the front line.
Many noticed the lack of chemistry between Ekitike and one particular teammate, with moments of miscommunication and misplaced passes. The tension was visible, and cameras even caught Ekitike shaking his head in frustration after being ignored in a clear scoring position during the second half.
Liverpool’s defeat not only extended their inconsistent run but also deepened the cracks within the squad. Arne Slot now faces his first major dressing-room conflict since taking charge.
The Fallout and Dressing Room Divide
Insiders claim this isn’t the first time Ekitike has complained about his treatment at Liverpool. He reportedly feels “frozen out” by a senior player who, in his words, “plays for himself rather than the team.” The Brentford game appears to have been the breaking point.
Club sources reveal that Ekitike’s relationship with the unnamed player has been strained since the start of the season, with training ground disagreements and visible tension during matches. Now, his threat to leave in January has put massive pressure on the club to act quickly before things spiral out of control.
Fans React as Speculation Mounts
Liverpool supporters online have been divided. Some side with Ekitike, claiming he has not been given the proper service or support to show his full potential. Others accuse him of lacking the composure and work ethic expected at a club of Liverpool’s stature.
But one thing is clear — the fans want answers. The burning question remains: Who is the player Ekitike wants out?
Arne Slot Faces His First Major Man-Management Test
Manager Arne Slot will have to act fast. With growing tension inside the squad and Liverpool’s attack looking disjointed, he must either reconcile the conflict or prepare for one of them to leave in the January transfer window.
If Ekitike’s words are anything to go by, he’s not backing down. His message was loud, emotional, and final: either the teammate goes, or he does.
As the January window approaches, all eyes will be on Anfield to see how this internal drama unfolds — and whether this explosive feud could mark the end of Hugo Ekitike’s short-lived Liverpool career.
