Atalanta anxious, Arab bid for Ademola Lookman
L'Al-Ittihad ready for anything to get the hero of the Europa League final
Lookman, after winning the Europa League final against Bayer Leverkusen, è become an idol in Bergamo. Orobici fans worship him. The problem è that the Dea striker has many admirers around the world. In particular, watch out for the Arabs of Al-Ittihad, ready to do anything to bring him to the Saudi Pro League.
"We have received an official offer from Al-Ittihad, but Atalanta hasn't received any offer yet, given the Saudi club's willingness to reach an agreement with us first. There are also inquiries from other European clubs about the player's future and his position regarding the possibility of departure. We will see what's best for the player and we will discuss it with his club", the words, to Shoot, of a representative of the agency that looks after Lookman's interests.
Atalanta has a contract with Lookman until June 2026, so it still has some leeway to negotiate a renewal and make a big deal should the player want to leave. However, a lot will depend on the size of the Arab club's offer.
There are many Dea jewels that are of interest to top clubs in Europe and beyond. Lookman è one of them. What the Orobica management will want to do remains to be seen. In the past, it has often sold its best players for significant sums, and then invested in new young promises. Willà this be the case with Lookman as well?
