Manchester United have reportedly tabled a €100 million bid for Nigerian winger Ademola Lookman, according to Spanish outlet Fichajes.
The Atalanta star has also attracted a similar offer from Paris Saint-Germain, as both clubs compete for his signature.
Lookman, 27, has been a standout performer in Serie A, this season excelling with his pace, agility, and attacking versatility. His ability to score goals and create chances has made him one of the league’s most complete forwards, capable of playing across multiple attacking positions.
He broke into limelight last season after his goals helped Atalanta qualify for the Europa League final, where he scored a hat-trick in their 3-0 win over Bayer Leverkusen to claim the club’s first-ever European trophy.
PSG, led by coach Luis Enrique, see Lookman as a crucial addition to bolster their attack as they aim to maintain dominance in Ligue 1 and compete for European glory. Meanwhile, Manchester United, under new manager Ruben Amorim, are eyeing Lookman as a key piece in their squad rebuild. His dynamic skillset fits perfectly into United’s plans to reclaim their status among Europe’s elite.
Atalanta, despite valuing Lookman’s contributions, are reportedly open to his sale. The potential transfer fee would provide a significant financial boost, enabling the Italian club to reinforce other areas of their squad while continuing their tradition of identifying and developing young talent.
