Atalanta insist on high price tag for Ademola Lookman

Serie A front runners Atalanta BC are again playing hard ball over a transfer by star forward Ademola Lookman.

This comes as the player was curiously consigned to the subs bench as Atalanta posted a comfortable win at Young Boys of Switzerland in the UEFA Champions League Tuesday night.

The Super Eagles star has continued to attract interest across Europe on the back of some superlative displays and his Italian club hope to cash in on that if they cannot hold to.

According to Tuttomercatoweb, Atalanta are demanding 70 Million Euros for Ademola Lookman and will not let him leave for less.

Italian journalist Paolo Paganini told Tuttomercatoweb that PSG have not lost interest on Ademola Lookman even after they could not land him in late in the summer transfer window.

“Lookman? I know that PSG’s summer interest had remained intact,” Paganini said.

“He is on Paris Saint-Germain’s shopping list, but it remains to be seen if Atalanta can do without someone like Lookman in January.”
