Nigerian forward Ademola Lookman has arrived in Madrid to undergo a medical ahead of a move to La Liga side Atlético Madrid.
The 28-year-old reportedly touched down in the Spanish capital after Atlético reportedly reached an agreement with Italian club Atalanta over his transfer. Details on the transfer fee are sketchy, though sources suggest it could be around €35 million, with potential add-ons.
Atlético is said to have moved quickly to wrap up the deal, beating Turkish club Fenerbahçe to Lookman’s signature. The club confirmed the forward will complete medical tests before personal terms are finalised, but a signing date has not been officially announced.
Lookman, who impressed for Nigeria at recent international competitions and had a solid run in Serie A with Atalanta, is expected to add pace and versatility to Atlético’s attack.
The football world will be watching closely to see how the deal unfolds in the coming days.
