Serie A high riding side Atalanta hope to keep top striker Ademola Lookman till 2027 and are proposing a new contract that would see him earning €3.5 million per year.
Lookman is enjoying a rich vein of form, which helped the club to their first ever European title when they beat Bayer Leverkusen in the 2024 Europa League. Lookman made a difference with his hattrick. This season he has scored 6 goals and made four assists from eight Serie A games and score two Champions League goals with one assist.
The Super Eagles striker is in frame to win the African player of the year award after being ranked 14 bests in the recent Ballon d’Or awards.
Reports from Bergamo by sports journalist Luciano Rota, says Atalanta are eager to keep Lookman’s and improve his current pay in a bid to ward off interest from other European clubs.
Lookman almost joined Paris St Germain in the summer, but Atalanta refused to deal after the player agreed personal terms with the French side.
