Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) rekindles interest in Nigerian forward Ademola Lookman, currently playing for Atalanta. Despite failing to secure him in the summer transfer window, PSG remains keen, with other clubs like West Ham and Manchester United also monitoring the player. Atalanta demands over £60 million for Lookman.
Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has reignited its interest in Ademola Lookman, the Nigerian forward playing for Atalanta in Serie A. After a successful season with the Italian club, Lookman has caught the attention of top European clubs. PSG had tried to secure his signature during the summer transfer window but failed to reach an agreement. However, the Ligue 1 champions remain keen on acquiring him, with discussions potentially resuming in the upcoming winter transfer window.
Lookman, who has been a standout performer for both Atalanta and the Super Eagles, has contributed significantly this season with nine goals and five assists in just 15 appearances. His remarkable performance, including a hat-trick in the UEFA Europa League, has only heightened his value in the transfer market. PSG is not the only club eyeing the 2017 FIFA U-20 World Cup winner, with Premier League clubs West Ham United and Manchester United also reportedly interested in signing him. Atalanta is said to demand over £60 million for the forward’s services.
Should a deal go through, Lookman’s addition would be a major boost for PSG’s attacking options. His explosive pace and goal-scoring ability make him a valuable asset for any top-tier club. As the transfer window approaches, Lookman’s future remains uncertain, with major European clubs in hot pursuit of his signature.
