Napoli looking to negotiate a swap deal for Atalanta star Lookman

Lookman’s performance has caught the attention of top clubs in Europe, with the winger set to depart Atalanta in the summer transfer window.

Napoli have set their sight on the Atalanta star as a good replacement and addition to the team for next season.

The Italian side lost one of their key players Khvicha Kvaratskhelia during the January transfer window and are keen for a replacement.

Transfer market expert Armando Areniello has revealed that Napoli are interested in signing Lookman ahead of next season.

According to Sogno nel Cuore, Areniello said on ‘1 Football Club’, a radio program hosted by Luca Cerchione, "There are three strikers who could change teams at the end of the season: Vlahovic, Lookman and Lucca. 

"Two of these three names, Lucca and Lookman, are very popular with Napoli. In particular, for Lookman, Napoli could offer an interesting counterpart, namely Giacomo Raspadori, to lower Atalanta's valuation, which starts at 60 million euros".

Lookman had a fallout with manager Gian Piero Gasperini after missing a penalty in the Champions League clash against Club Brugge in February.

Following the situation, the reigning African Footballer of the Year has made it clear that he wants to leave Atalanta next summer.

With just one year left on his Atalanta contract, the Nigerian international is being watched by Premier League, Ligue 1 and La Liga teams.
