PSG could strike a big blow during the winter transfer window by targeting Ademola Lookman, the versatile striker from Atalanta Bergamo. According to Calciomercatothe Parisian club would be ready to match the 63 million euros claimed for the player, thus ahead of Arsenal, also interested with an offer estimated at 50 million euros.

Lookman, who scored a hat-trick in the victorious Europa League final against Bayer Leverkusen, also finished in 14th place in the 2024 Ballon d’Or, testifying to his brilliant season.

A return to the forefront for PSG

With his ability to play up front, in a false nine or even on the wings, the Nigerian international would provide valuable offensive flexibility for Luis Enrique’s team, looking for alternatives to Gyökeres and Nkunku, whose transfers seem unthinkable this winter.

If Lookman was mentioned during the last summer transfer window, PSG now seems ready to relaunch negotiations. At 27, the Bergamo striker could embody the immediate answer to the club’s needs, while competing with prestigious suitors like Arsenal. However, Atalanta would hesitate to give up their nugget before next summer, which could complicate discussions.
