Aston Villa Eye £60M-Rated Game-Changing Attacker on Barcelona, PSG’s Radar | OneFootball

Last summer, Paris Saint-Germain showed interest in signing Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman, but a deal never went through. Recent reports, however, suggest PSG are still eager to bring the Nigerian forward to the French capital.

Matteo Moretto and Fabrizio Romano, via Viva El Fútbol, report PSG’s interest remains strong as Lookman considers his options ahead of the summer transfer window. Juventus is also in the mix, adding more competition for his signature.

GIVE ME SPORT previously reported that Arsenal, Liverpool, Newcastle United, and Tottenham Hotspur have all been monitoring the 27-year-old, with scouts from each club recently attending his matches.

Additionally, TEAMtalk states that West Ham United is among several Premier League clubs that are watching Lookman. With multiple teams in the race, Atalanta are reportedly asking for over £60 million for the forward.

On Sunday, GIVE ME SPORT reported that Aston Villa are targeting players who could reach new heights with more opportunities, including Lookman and AC Milan loanee Tammy Abraham. Lookman has recorded 18 goals and seven assists in 32 appearances for Atalanta this season after coming off winning the UEFA Europa League last year.

Mundo Deportivo recently reported that Barcelona are considering Lookman as an option to strengthen their attack for next season. Meanwhile, TuttoAtalanta previously claimed that Liverpool view Lookman as their top target to replace Mo Salah if the Egyptian leaves on a free transfer this summer.

In Italy, reports suggest PSG are in the market for a new forward, with Tuttomercatoweb stating the club plans to make an offer for Lookman. This would be PSG’s second attempt to sign him after showing interest last summer, though they are expected to face intense competition from Arsenal and Newcastle.
