Atalanta has reportedly set an ambitious €50 million valuation for Nigerian forward Ademola Lookman following his impressive form. Lookman has excelled this season with eight goals and five assists in 14 matches, showcasing his prowess in both Serie A and European competitions.
While top clubs, including PSG, are monitoring him closely, Atalanta is under no pressure to sell in January. With a contract extending until 2026 and an option for an extra year, Lookman remains central to the club’s ambitions.
The striker’s contract at the Gewiss Stadium expires in June 2026, but the Serie A side have an option to extend it for a further campaign, raising his salary to €2m per season.
Friday’s printed edition of Corriere dello Sport reports that any interested club will be required to pay at least €50m for the 27-year-old striker who moved to Bergamo from RB Leipzig for just €9.3m in the summer of 2022.
Atalanta is healthy financially, so the club is unwilling to sell Lookman in the January transfer window but may listen to offers in the summer.
Lookman inspired Atalanta’s Europa League victory last season with a hat-trick in the final against Bayer Leverkusen and finished 14th in the 2024 Ballon d’Or ranking.
