TRANSFER RUMOR: Barcelona Manager Reportedly Eyes Ademola Lookman as Potential Summer Signing

FC Barcelona is actively exploring options to strengthen its squad ahead of the upcoming season, with manager Hansi Flick identifying Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman as a potential transfer target.

Lookman, 27, has been in scintillating form for Atalanta, contributing 52 goals and 25 assists in 118 appearances since joining the Serie A club. His standout performances, including a hat-trick in last year’s Europa League final against Bayer Leverkusen, have made him one of the most sought-after forwards in European football.

Reports indicate that Flick has communicated his interest in Lookman to Barcelona’s board, signaling the club’s intent to pursue the Nigerian international. Atalanta has reportedly set an asking price of €60 million, with several other top European clubs—including Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal, and Atletico Madrid—also monitoring the situation.

Barcelona is expected to weigh its options carefully as it looks to reinforce its attacking lineup. With Lookman’s contract set to expire next year, the Catalan giants may seek to negotiate a financially viable deal to bring the dynamic forward to the Camp Nou
