Real Madrid is reportedly setting its sights on Nigerian star Ademola Lookman, who has made waves with his dynamic performance at Atalanta in Serie A.
Known for his impressive attacking skills and versatility, Lookman has become a focal point of transfer speculation following his standout hat-trick in the Europa League final.
His ability to deliver in high-stakes matches has marked him as a top prospect for several European giant.
This interest from Madrid comes at a strategic time for the club, which is looking to deepen its forward lineup despite already acquiring Kylian Mbappé.
Lookman’s agility, combined with his quick adaptability on the field, makes him a potentially ideal fit for Real Madrid’s high-paced, offensive play.
However, Madrid has traditionally focused on younger players in recent transfer windows, making the decision to bring in Lookman—who is approaching his late 20s—something of a departure from their usual priorities​.
Atalanta initially placed a high valuation on Lookman due to his game-winning abilities and popularity in the transfer market.
Yet, with increasing interest from clubs like Paris Saint-Germain, Lookman’s market value remains in flux.
As the transfer window edges closer to its peak, it remains uncertain whether Madrid will make a move or divert its attention to other emerging talents to reinforce its attack
