Red-hot Super Eagles ace, Ademola Lookman has informed his family of his decision to quit Atalanta in the summer.

According to Italian and Sky Italia Sacha Tavolieri’s report on the international football transfer market on Monday.

It’s a done deal, Lookman will no longer be an Atalanta Bergamo player next season. In open conflict with his coach since his missed penalty in the last 16 of the Champions League against Club Brugge, the Nigerian has had little taste for the statements made by Gian Piero Gasperini in the Italian press.

The Nigerian who had already been on the transfer market for a year and half will be able to take advantage of the craze and the still high rating he enjoys in England to sign in the Premier League next season.

It must be said that the London native is no longer at the same level this season as in 2023-2024 when he almost single-handedly won the UEFA Europa League final against Bayer Leverkusen. Author of a historic treble, the DEA would perhaps never have lifted a European trophy without the Nigerian.

In any case, this is the discourse that filters through when we discuss the Nigerian’s situation with his entourage.

Although he has often carried the Bergamo collective on his shoulders, Lookman feels he does not receive the respect he deserves within the dressing room. An unfortunate situation that does not prevent him from being involved in 29% of his team’s goals, with twelve goals and five assists.

At 27, the man with twenty-three caps and six goals for the Super Eagles is entering the best period of his career and his entourage knows it: contacts have already been made with Liverpool to examine the possibility of a permanent transfer this summer. Interested, Arsenal have made inquiries but have not yet taken the concrete steps that the Reds have already started.

The latter consider the Nigerian as one of the most credible options to replace Mohamed Salah in the summer of 2025.

In this case, Saudi Arabia, whose millions make Ademola Lookman’s dream, will also have to be monitored. He has already informed his close relations that if the opportunity to play in the Saudi Pro League presents itself, he will seize it.

U don't need to announce it this time bro, at least u would have waited towards the end of the season, we know u are going already because they can do more to damage ur reputation before that time

Atalanta and Gesperini made lookman, cos he had been wallowing in football wilderness for a long time , from England to Torino ... Gesperini bought him and made him who he is today ... if not for Atalanta and Gesperini, he would have faded off like some of those mediocre players
