Paris Saint-Germain have been linked to Atalanta standout Ademola Lookman to bolster their attack in these last days of the summer transfer window. However, with how quickly this rumor emerged, it might be going away just as fast.
A few days ago, journalist Rudy Galetti confirmed that Lookman and PSG have agreed on personal terms in principle. Now, it was up to the clubs, with Atalanta waiting for an official offer from the French side to decide the Nigerian striker’s future.
Moreover, RMC Sport’s Fabrice Hawkins reported that discussions with the Serie A side haven’t advanced, even though the 26-year-old is keen on joining PSG. Amid all this information, more details on Lookman’s future surfaced on Thursday.
Journalist Alfredo Pedullà reported that Arsenal are ready to offer Atalanta €50 million plus Jakub Kiwior in exchange for Lookman. Meanwhile, Liverpool have also expressed interest in the forward, with Atalanta setting a price tag of €65 million to €70 million.
