Atalanta have upped the ante, raising the asking price for star winger Ademola Lookman to €60 million, according to reports. With two years left on his contract, the Serie A outfit appears poised to capitalize on their standout performer, despite initially setting his price at €50 million.
The 27-year-old Nigerian international has turned heads this season with dazzling displays, drawing interest from a host of top clubs, including Paris Saint-Germain, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur, and Chelsea. His surge in form has evidently prompted Atalanta to rethink their valuation.
Lookman, who arrived at Atalanta from RB Leipzig three years ago, has been a revelation under manager Gian Piero Gasperini. In 109 appearances, he’s notched 50 goals and 21 assists, cementing his status as a key figure for La Dea. As the transfer buzz intensifies, his next move promises to be one to watch.
