As with Victor Osimhen, another Nigerian, rumour existed that Ademola Lookman may be leaving Atalanta during the summer transfer window.
Despite being linked with some of the giants in Ligue 1 and the English Premier League and the Bundesliga, no transfer was made.
PSG’s Interest Fades
It is stated that Lookman has been on the radar of Paris Saint-Germain mainly because of his great performance in the Europa League final, where he scored a hat-trick against Bayer Leverkusen.
Nevertheless, PSG’s interest decreased when their manager, Luis Enrique, decided to cope with Ramos’ absence by promoting players from within.
What Atalanta players said
Despite the desire to leave, Atlanta temporarily isolated Lookman from first-team training but later readmitted the forward.
Looking at this, former Atalanta defender Berat Djimsiti said, speaking to SOS FANTA, “We know Lookman; he had it hard out in the market, but we told him to cool down, and he will be a hero again.”
In his first Serie A season match, Lookman came up with an assist and a goal in Atalanta’s 3-2 beating of Fiorentina.
Now preparing for a Champions League clash with Premier League giants, the Nigerian forward has sent a strong warning to the London-based club ahead of the tie, as revealed earlier by Sportsbuddy.
