Paris Saint-Germain might aim to strengthen its attack before the summer transfer window closes. As a result, Atalanta’s Ademola Lookman has reportedly put himself on the Parisians’ radar, and the interest is mutual.
Lookman has been the center of transfer speculation this weekend, with La Gazzetta dello Sport revealing PSG’s interest in him. Other sources have picked up on the same story.
TuttoMercatoWeb adds that PSG might make a serious late bid for Lookman as the transfer window closes. Repubblica also reports that Atalanta have set a €55 million price tag for the player, so any club interested in him will need to meet that valuation.
Moreover, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano provided more information on this file. According to Romano, Lookman is eager to leave Atalanta because he’s interested in joining PSG.
There have been multiple discussions between PSG and his agents, but no official offer or club-to-club negotiations have occurred. The next move is up to the clubs to see if a deal can be made.
