Barcelona considering Nigeria star Ademola Lookman as alternative to Nico Williams

PSG revives interest in Nigerian forward Ademola Lookman

Barcelona are reportedly considering Nigeria international Ademola Lookman as an alternative to Nico Williams ahead of the summer transfer window.

The Spanish giants are understood to be in the haunt for a new winger in an attempt to strengthen their attack.

For a large portion of last summer, Barcelona were understood to be keen about the signing of Nico Williams, who plies his trade for Athletic Bilbao.

He came close to joining the Catalan giants last summer but the move fell through after failing to meet his release clause.

Barcelona are said to be rethinking about their plans of landing Nico Williams ahead of the summer window. Per reports in Spain, his transfer fee is putting Barcelona off a move.

However, Ademola Lookman, who plies his trade for Atalanta is being considered by Barcelona as an alternative. Lookman’s ability to play off either wing or through the middle is seen as an asset.

The Nigeria international, who has an estimated transfer value is seen as a significantly cheaper alternative. Atalanta are likely to ask €40-45 million for the attacker.

The 22-year-old joined Atalanta in 2022 and has since established himself as a key cog to the team, racking up crucial goals including a hat-trick that won the Europa League title for the Italian club last season.

Lookman is currently considering his future and could leave at the end of the season which has led to a number of clubs including Arsenal, Liverpool, Newcastle United, Tottenham Hotspur and Juventus to enter the race.
