Arsenal shortlist in-demand Lookman

By Daily Sports Nigeria on May 5, 2025

Arsenal have reportedly become the latest club to turn their attention to Ademola Lookman, as several teams appear ready to make a move for the Atalanta striker this summer.

The Nigerian forward is expected to bring his three-year spell in Bergamo to an end at the close of the season, particularly following mid-season tensions with coach Gian Piero Gasperini, which have led many clubs to closely monitor his situation.

According to Florian Plettenberg, Arsenal have added the 27-year-old to their shortlist ahead of the upcoming transfer window.

The Champions League semifinalists believe Lookman could be a valuable addition to a forward line they are aiming to reinforce in the summer.

However, the Gunners are set to face strong competition for the former Everton forward, with Chelsea, Manchester United, and Liverpool all reportedly ready to open talks with the player’s entourage in the near future.

The list of suitors also includes Barcelona and Juventus, who have already held talks for the striker.

According to Spanish outlet Marca via Les-transferts, Atlético Madrid have also opened discussions with Lookman’s representatives.

Lookman has steadily improved his goal tally across his three seasons at the Gewiss Stadium and currently boasts 18 goals in 37 appearances across all competitions.

Atalanta are reportedly willing to sell the 27-year-old if their €60m valuation is met.
