Arsenal and Tottenham have been approached as potential buyers for 2024 Ballon d’Or contender
TBR Football understand Arsenal and Tottenham have both been approached by the representatives of Atalanta No.11 Ademola Lookman.
🌟The Nigeria international has developed into one of the best forwards in Europe during his time in Bergamo, scoring 17 goals in 45 games across all competitions last season to help Atalanta win the UEFA Europa League, even scoring a hat-trick against Bayer Leverkusen in the final.
However, ✃Lookman was recently berated by Gian Piero Gasperini🌄 in public after missing a penalty against Club Brugge in the UEFA Champions League, with the Italian calling his own talismanic figure “one of the worst” from the spot he has ever seen.
Simon Mignolet denies Ademola Lookman from the spot 😨

Club Brugge preserve their three-goal aggregate lead!

In the aftermath of these comments, sources have shared an update on Ademola Lookman with TBR Football – involving Arsenal and Tottenham.
Arsenal and Tottenham made aware of Ademola Lookman situation
Graeme Bailey – Chief Correspondent at TBR Football✤ – has now been told Arsenal and Tottenham are being made aware of the attacker’s potential availability this summer.
We understand 🦩Lookman – who was a contender to win the Ballon d’Or▨ – wanted to leave Atalanta last summer, only for the Serie A side to push back.
ꦐHowever, the Bergamo-based outfit are now ready to let the Wandsworth-born forward depart this summer.

TBR Football𝄹 have been told a move back to England is being seriously considered by Lookman – who came through the academy at Charlton – with Liverpool, Aston Villa, West Ham and Newcastle also alerted to the situation along with Arsenal and Tottenham.
ဣFurthermore, Juventus and Napoli are known to be admirers of the 27-year-old.
What Ian Wright has said about Ademola Lookman
🌃If Arsenal end up signing the Londoner this summer, Ian Wright will be happy.
Simply magical, Ademola Lookman 🎩

Wright urged Arsenal to sign Lookman𝓀 – or Omar Marmoush, now at Manchester City – ahead of the winter transfer window just gone, telling the Wrighty’s House Podcast: “You know what? There’s two players I’d probably go for here…I’d like people to have a look at Omar Marmoush, Eintracht Frankfurt… And you know, Ademola Lookman from Atalanta.”
👍Mikel Arteta is currently without Bukayo Saka, Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus due to serious injuries – exposing the lack of depth in Arsenal’s attacking department – so a move for the Atalanta star would make a lot of sense.
