Arsenal is set to challenge Atalanta's resolve by making a bold move to secure Super Eagles forward Ademola Lookman with a €50 million offer, plus Polish defender Jakub Kiwior.
Lookman, who has been a standout performer since joining Atalanta two seasons ago, has caught the attention of top European clubs, including PSG, Bayern Munich, Arsenal, Liverpool, and Chelsea. His future has been the subject of speculation following his impressive displays, particularly after his hat-trick against Bayer Leverkusen, which helped Atalanta clinch the UEFA Europa League title.
The 26-year-old's absence from Atalanta's opening Serie A game of the season has fueled further transfer rumors, with Arsenal and Liverpool emerging as the leading contenders for his signature.
In a recent development, Transfer News Live reports that Arsenal is prepared to sweeten the deal by offering €50 million in cash along with Kiwior, who is currently valued at €30 million on Transfermarkt. This combined €80 million offer surpasses Atalanta's €70 million valuation of Lookman.
With the transfer window closing in just eight days, any club serious about acquiring Lookman will need to act swiftly. However, no official agreement has been reached yet.
