Manchester City Eyeing Lookman as Premier League Race Heats Up
Ademola Lookman’s future has taken a sudden twist as Manchester City joins the race to sign the Super Eagles forward.
The 26-year-old, currently with Atalanta, is attracting interest from several Premier League giants, including Liverpool and Arsenal.
Lookman’s potential move back to England became more likely after Paris Saint-Germain inquired about his availability. Following this, Lookman requested to be excluded from Atalanta’s Serie A opener against Lecce, signaling a possible exit.
Atalanta’s coach, Gian Piero Gasperini, had high hopes for Lookman this season, but those hopes are now uncertain.
Manchester City’s interest, reported by TBR Football, adds another layer of intrigue to the transfer saga. Lookman, who left Everton in 2019 for RB Leipzig, is now valued at around €60 million by Atalanta. His impressive record of 32 goals and 18 assists in 79 appearances has made him a hot commodity.
Lookman’s standout performance came when he scored a hat-trick in a European final, making him only the sixth player to achieve this feat.
