Ademola Lookman's future at Atalanta hangs in the balance as PSG throws a €40m offer for the Nigerian star. Read on for the juicy details!
Ademola Lookman has been turning heads at Atalanta, and the club's CEO, Luca Percassi, is eager to keep the Nigerian sensation at the team. Having made a significant impact last season, including scoring a pivotal hat-trick in the UEFA Europa League, Lookman has been generating attention from across Europe. Recently, Paris Saint-Germain has shown interest, but Percassi has made it clear that they want to hold onto their star forward, who they’ve tagged with a hefty €40 million price just in case any suitors are keen to make a move.
However, it seems that PSG's €40m bid may not be enough to lure Lookman away from Atalanta, especially with the club expressing their frustration over the way PSG approached the player directly. On the field, Lookman was not included in Atalanta's opening match of the Serie A season amidst the swirling transfer rumors, leaving fans wondering if his absence signaled a pending departure or simply tactical choice by manager Gian Piero Gasperini. Still, Atalanta celebrated an impressive 4-0 victory against Lecce, showcasing their newfound talents without their Nigerian star.
Interestingly, Gasperini, despite the drama surrounding Lookman's future, was able to lead his team to a thumping start with new signings Marco Brescianini and Mateo Retegui netting two goals each. It goes to show that Atalanta isn’t just about one player; they have plenty of talent ready to step up, even in the face of ugly surprises in the transfer market. The coach stated that nobody expected the challenges they faced off the pitch, yet they performed like champions on it, solidifying their position among Serie A’s elite.
As the La Dea look forward to the future, Lookman’s potential move could significantly impact his career. If he remains, he stands a fair chance of contending for the coveted African Footballer of the Year title based on his standout season. However, if he jumps ship to PSG, he won’t just be joining a top European side but will also experience what it’s like to play alongside global superstars. One thing’s for sure: whether staying or going, the story of Lookman in Italian football is far from over!
