Amidst a conflict with Atalanta's head coach Gian Piero Gasperini, Bergamo's star Ademola Lookman is aiming to leave Bergamo. And a serious competition is emerging for him.
Details: Previously, Tottenham and Juventus were reported to be interested in the Nigerian, but a third club has now joined the list, and according to Mundo Deportivo, it's Barcelona.
Lookman is not the only candidate to strengthen Barcelona's left winger position, which he is aware of, but he is confident that he could become the new flank player for the Catalan team.
The "Blaugrana" also appreciate the winger's abilities, but he is not their primary choice. The priority target is Luis Diaz from Liverpool, followed by Rafael Leao from Milan. Only if negotiations with these two players fail will Barcelona turn to Lookman.
Reminder: The Lookman-Gasperini conflict occurred after Atalanta's exit from the Champions League, when the player missed a penalty. The "Goddess" coach then criticized the player, while fans supported the winger.
