Ademola Lookman, the 27-year-old attacker from Atalanta and Nigeria, was one of the most mentioned names in Paris Saint-Germain's summer 2024 transfer market. But he ultimately didn't come. However, PSG did take action. Gianluca Percassi, the general manager of the Italian club, looked back on this moment during a press conference, as there are now tensions with the player, who is currently in demand from Inter Milan, among others.
« The agreement with Lookman was made a year ago, when we rejected 20 million euros from PSG. We told him: we will let him leave in 2025 for a very high-level club, and not in Italy. Now, the situation [with Inter] is different… and as always, we decide. »
PSG had indeed taken concrete action for Lookman, with the intention of strengthening its attack with this versatile player. But Atalanta closed the door, at least for that price, while Paris waited for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (24 years old), who signed during the winter transfer market from Naples. Even if it might have been possible to recruit both.
In any case, it didn't happen, and there's nothing in that sense today. Even if Percassi's statement could open the door, since a move to PSG would meet the criteria. However, it would require PSG to revisit the case. Nothing is impossible, especially since an offensive recruit wouldn't be unreasonable. That's not the current trend, though.
