Ademola Lookman is another Nigerian star in high demand. The reigning CAF Player of the Year has been instrumental in Atalanta's success, leading the team to Europa League glory with a hat-trick in the final.

Lookman's impressive form has attracted interest from top European clubs, including Manchester United. With his contract expiring in the summer of 2026, the former Fulham man has reportedly handed in a transfer request, paving the way for a potential move.

At 27, Lookman is entering his peak, making him an outstanding signing for any club.

Samuel Chukwueze

Chukwueze has been mediocre in his time at Milan, with a few highs and several lows. The former Villarreal man was linked with a January move to Newcastle and has also drawn reported interest from a number of clubs.

While he has not been a terrible signing, he has failed to live up to expectations, and this might be the right time for him to move on.
