- Juventus eye Ademola Lookman transfer as Atalanta star's future hangs in balance.
- Lookman valued at 55 million euros, but Atalanta could demand up to 70 million.
Italian giants Juventus are reportedly keeping tabs on Super Eagles forward Ademola Lookman, with a view to signing him in the summer as per a report from Fichajes.
The 27-year-old has been in impressive form for Atalanta since joining the club in 2022, and his performances have caught the attention of several top European sides.
Juventus have struggled to find consistency in front of goal this season, scoring just 41 goals in the league. As a result, they are preparing for an active summer transfer window, with Lookman reportedly high on their wishlist.
The Nigerian forward has been a standout performer for Atalanta, helping the club win the Europa League last season.
His brilliance has made him a target for several top clubs, including Manchester United, PSG, Chelsea, and Arsenal.
However, Atalanta are determined to hold onto their star player, and blocked a transfer last summer. But with Lookman's contract set to expire in just over a year, the club may be forced to sell him this summer to avoid losing him for free.
Lookman is currently valued at 55 million euros, but Atalanta could demand up to 70 million to sanction the transfer.
Juventus will face stiff competition for the Nigerian forward's signature, but they are reportedly confident of securing a deal.
