Spanish giants Real Madrid have joined in the race for in-form Ademola Lookman, with the UEFA Champions League holders hoping to bring the Nigerian to Santiago Bernabeu as a possible replacement for Vinicius Junior.
Lookman has been in scintillating form since joining Atalanta from RB Leipzig in 2022 for €9.35milion plus bonuses, amassing 39 goals and providing 23 assists in 90 competitive appearances for the Italian side, and has been linked with a host of top European clubs.
The 27-year-old was close to joining Paris Saint-Germain in August, with Sports Zone reporting that the player had reached personal agreement with the French giants.
Last season, Lookman featured in 45 matches, scoring 17 goals and providing 10 assists. His standout moment came in the UEFA Europa League final against Bayer Leverkusen, where he netted a stunning hat-trick to secure the trophy for Atalanta.
He has not shown any sign of slowing down this season and has chipped in seven goals and provided five assists from 12 appearances.
