The Atalanta marksman could return to English football in January or next summer.
Atalanta and Nigeria forward Ademola Lookman could return to the Premier League according to Give Me Sport.
Interest in Lookman
Per the report, Lookman is drawing significant attention from Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal side, while other English clubs like Liverpool, Newcastle United, and Tottenham Hotspur are also keen on the Nigerian.
The Super Eagles forward has been in exceptional form this season, scoring 10 goals and setting up five in all competitions this season for La Dea, recently hitting a late winning goal against AC Milan to send Gian Piero Gasperini’s men top of Serie A.
Despite previous spells in the Premier League with Everton, Fulham, and Leicester City, where he showed glimpses of potential but lacked consistency, Lookman has thrived in Italy under Gasperini's system at Atalanta.
