Premier League powerhouse Arsenal has begun negotiations with a Super Eagles forward, Ademola Lookman regarding a possible transfer this summer.
The Super Eagles player has established himself as one of Europe’s leading wingers over the past two years.
Lookman is known for his speed, agility, and effectiveness in front of goal.
He has been a key player in Atalanta’s offense, amassing 52 goals and 25 assists in 118 matches across all competitions.

He is notably the only player to have scored a hat trick in a Europa League final, a feat that helped La Dea secure their first European trophy two seasons ago.
However, he is looking to leave Atalanta this summer, and the club is open to selling him as he has just one year remaining on his contract.
In addition to Arsenal, Lookman is attracting interest from several clubs, including Juventus, Napoli, Manchester United, Liverpool, and Barcelona.
It is anticipated that he would prefer to return to England, where he began his career and has close friends and family.
Lookman is valued at €60 million, a price that Arsenal is likely willing to meet. The club aims to finalize the transfer quickly.
