The Italian Giants are reportedly considering Nigerian forward Ademola Lookman as a potential summer signing to strengthen their attack, bianconeranews.it reports.
According to Sportitalia.com journalist Gianluigi Longari, the Italian giants are preparing for major moves in the transfer market, especially if Dušan Vlahović leaves at the end of the season due to unresolved contract negotiations.

While Napoli’s Victor Osimhen is also on their radar, his transfer appears highly unlikely. This has shifted Juventus’ focus to Lookman, who has been in excellent form for Atalanta. However, securing the Nigerian international won’t be easy. Atalanta’s rising status in Serie A and their reputation for demanding high fees could complicate negotiations, especially if Lookman continues his impressive performances.
“Dreaming doesn’t cost anything,” Longari said, hinting at the challenges of such a deal.
For Juventus, Lookman represents an exciting option as they look to reshape their squad for the future. Whether the move materializes depends on both the player’s form and Juventus’ ability to meet Atalanta’s demands. According to TRansfermarkt the player’s current value is estimated at €40 million.
