Barcelona see Lookman as alternative to Nico Williams and Leao | OneFootball

Barcelona are reportedly interested in Atalanta and Nigeria star Ademola Lookman ahead of the summer transfer window, but Hansi Flick’s side have a number of attacking targets in mind, including Nico Williams of Athletic Club and Milan’s Rafael Leao.

According to reports from Mundo Deportivo and Corriere dello Sport, Lookman is emerging as a possible option for Barcelona in the summer transfer window.

The reigning African Player of the Year will be entering the final year of his Atalanta contract in the summer, which makes an exit feasible, and there have been hints over the course of the 2024-25 season that his time in Bergamo could be coming to an end.

The 27-year-old had also been close to securing a move to Paris Saint-Germain last summer.

Barcelona interested in Lookman: Potential price tag revealed

According to Saturday’s print edition of Mundo Deportivo, reported via CdS, Atalanta could be talked into letting Lookman leave for a fee in the region of €30m given that his contract will be up in 2026. La Dea had reportedly sought a fee in the region of €40m from PSG last summer.

However, Lookman is not the only target that Barcelona have in mind ahead of the summer transfer window.

When it comes to attackers, Nico Williams is still a firm favourite, despite Barcelona’s reluctance to negotiate with Athletic Club after a deal fell through last summer. Milan’s Leao is also an option, particularly with several uncertainties hanging over San Siro this season. Liverpool’s Luis Diaz has also been mentioned as a possible option for the Blaugrana.
