Ademola Lookman might ultimately stay in Serie A but ...

According to several sources, Ademola Lookman and Atalanta Bergamo have ultimately agreed on a separation at the end of the current season. An informal agreement is said to have been reached between the player and the club management to facilitate his departure this summer.

This decision comes a year before the end of the Nigerian forward's contract. It's an opportune time for a sale to avoid a free departure in 2026. The Italian club hopes to capitalize on Lookman's market value, set at around 60 million euros, although this amount could be negotiated based on the offers received.

While a return to England is considered, with clubs like Arsenal and Chelsea showing interest, Lookman might also remain in Italy. Juventus and Napoli, two Serie A giants, are reportedly ready to compete for his services.
