For a few months now, Victor Osimhen’s name has been linked to Paris Saint-Germain. But it is another Nigerian international who has been associated with the French champions in recent days. Indeed, yesterday we revealed that Ademola Lookman is pushing to join the capital club. He wants to sign in Paris and has even informed his club, Atalanta. Sky Italy has also specified that he wants to put all the chances on his side since he has asked not to appear in the Bergamo group on the occasion of the first day of Serie A.

The Italian media also indicated that the Dea had not received any proposal from Paris. Which we confirmed. But we explained to you that discussions are open between the different parties concerned, who aim to find an agreement by the end of the transfer window. The exchanges between PSG and the Lookman clan are rather positive. But there is still a long way to go. Especially since Atalanta is very unhappy with the behavior of its player, who is doing everything possible to sign in France.

The Dea wants a nice check

But the door could well open anyway. This Monday, The Gazzetta dello Sport reveals that the Parisians, who have clearly explained their project to the player, will soon make an offer. But it will have to live up to the expectations of Atalanta, which is already exploring the market to compensate for his departure. Nico Gonzalez pleases Gianpiero Gasperini’s club. The GdS specifies that it will be necessary to put in between 50 and 60 million euros to dislodge Lookman from Bergamo. For its part, The Republic mentions an amount of €55 million.

A price range that corresponds to the one we heard. It remains to be seen whether the team chaired by Nasser Al-Khelaïfi will be willing to go all the way and especially to put as much money on the table for the player who scored 17 goals and provided 9 assists last year in 45 appearances in all competitions (33 as a starter). What is certain is that the footballer under contract until June 2026, whose market value is estimated at 40 million euros according to transfermarktwants to do everything to join the team coached by Luis Enrique and take a new step in his career.
