Atletico Madrid Eyes Ademola Lookman Amid Fenerbahce Interest
Atletico Madrid is considering a €35m move for Nigerian winger Ademola Lookman, who is currently with Atalanta. Fenerbahce is also interested in Lookman, with negotiations ongoing to secure the 28-year-old's services.
Lookman has expressed his desire to leave Atalanta after the Africa Cup of Nations. Despite interest from clubs like Galatasaray and Napoli, Atalanta has been reluctant to sell Lookman.
Several Premier League clubs, including Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City, and Aston Villa, have declined opportunities to sign Lookman. Lookman's contract with Atalanta has approximately 18 months remaining, and the club faces a decision on whether to sell him or risk losing him on a free transfer.
Lookman's performances, including three goals and four assists at the 2025 AFCON, have highlighted his quality.
