Premier League West Ham United is interested in Super Eagles Ademola Lookman and has held internal discussions about the possibility of signing the player, sourced on GMS.
The Nigerian winger enjoyed an impressive 2023/24 season at Atalanta, scoring 17 times and registering 10 assists across all competitions, as well as scoring a hat-trick in the Europa League final against Bayer Leverkusen.
Lookman has also started the new campaign in a similarly rich vein of form, contributing to four goals in just four Serie A starts.
Inevitably, such a sustained run of excellent performances has prompted several clubs to monitor the form of Fulham man.
West Ham have emerged as potential suitors, with the Hammers eager to further boost Julen Lopetegui’s attacking cohort in future windows, identifying Lookman as a possible option they may explore.
After a series of largely unsuccessful spells at various English clubs, Lookman has finally settled in his career, joining Atalanta in a €15 million deal in the summer of 2022.
Enjoying 15-goal and 17-goal seasons in each of his first two years in Northern Italy, the 27-year-old capped off an outstanding couple of campaigns with an iconic Europa League final performance in May, and has now been described as ‘unstoppable’.
Several clubs have taken note of the London-born man’s achievements in Bergamo, with United reportedly willing to pay £50 million to land him back in June, while Arsenal supposedly made a late offer for him in August.
