Lookman has been with Atalanta since 2022 and has made 118 appearances for the club, scoring 52 goals and registering 25 assists. Last season, the Nigeria international enjoyed his most prolific campaign to date, netting 15 times. In 22/23, he was central as the club won the Europa League.
DID YOU KNOW?
Lookman has history in England, having played for Charlton Athletic, Everton, Fulham, and Leicester, the latter two on loan from RB Leipzig. He has enjoyed a career revival in Italy, however; he only managed to score 11 Premier League goals across his 96 top-flight appearances.

Arsenal have a decision to make over their attacking targets this summer. It remains to be seen if they will formalise their interest in Lookman with a formal bid.
